[Red5] SharedObjects outside of ApplicationAdapter?

[Walter Tak]

You should look at Red5 as it is right now. It works , in a way , and we 
should be happy with that. There is room for improvement, or even we might 
not know what the best way is and possible your desired solution is possible 
but until we aren't experienced enough with the code we have to do what 
looks best and have fun with it.

If you find out how to access the SO lateron without passing the reference 
to the application/class/scope whatever to your class then you can rewrite a 
piece of the code. Afterall I hope most work will be in designing and 
writing the application, not the relative minor part 'how to access the SO' 
isn't it ?

My personal opinion about the everlasting search for writing 'the cleanest 
and most modulair piece of code' is that in the end you spend 50% of the 
time on 5-10% of the project and after 3 months you find a better solution 
for that hard part and you rewrite that 5-10% of your code in half a day :)

First time we experimented with Red5 it took us 3 weeks to make a simple 
database-connection to mysql using it's native driver and getting functional 
logs (log4j) It took us that long because we didn't use Red5 in easy-mode 
enough and wanted to do 'hard and deep interesting matter' right away.
