<P class=EC_MsoNormal style="MARGIN-LEFT: 36pt"><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt; COLOR: rgb(31,73,125); FONT-FAMILY: 'Calibri','sans-serif'">The 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.</SPAN></P>
