runtime engine is inherently different. It is built on the Flex framework, which
brings an awful lot of out of the box power vis a vis developing the whole thing
from scratch in AS3.0. The interpreter is different, so the scripting language
changes a bit. Overall the application is very similar. I have built what’s
there so far using FlashDevelop, which I like a lot, and everything is now much
more object-oriented than before. This makes it a lot easier for the community
to contribute than it is currently, and also much easier for us to manage
contributions to the code base. As now, any contributions would be very welcome
– although the runtime engine is pretty good right now – it is the editor that
needs a lot of work. Certain editor considerations might mean looking again at
the .x3o file format which is why things are very much ‘for information’ right
now.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
