Because OpenFL 2.0.1 didn't have all of the classes that Away3D uses, a newer version of OpenFL must be used, even though the haxelib.json says the OpenFL dependency version is 2.0.1.
It would be much easier for people to get started successfully if the version of OpenFL listed in "haxelib.json" were updated. OpenFL 2.1.6 (current version at time of writing) works on Mac and Windows.
Right now, haxelib installs OpenFL 2.0.1, or asks the user to switch OpenFL to 2.0.1, which doesn't work, and they they have to learn to switch to the latest OpenFL version on their own, which isn't a good first experience. If the haxelib.json file is changed to make OpenFL use a newer version, then any new user of Away3D should have a smooth experience.
