Speaking of which, as3compile has its own testsuite (only for syntax/bytecode, not for API), that generates all kinds of obscure (but working!) bytecode combinations. I wonder whether you can use that for testing Gnash's AVM2 implementation, too: http://git.swftools.org/lib/as3/ok/

If it isn't working usefully today, do you think it's realistic that we plan to cut the next release in September? AVM1 still works, so a release wouldn't be entirely pointless. Yes, there's been progress on AVM1, so it is worth a new release. I do not think there is any hope of AVM2

I will spend the rest of the time (this week) during the summer project going back and making sure all the classes.all tests work in both versions of the pp. I believe, that at the beginning we didn't have a really good understanding of haxe could do and how it worked, so that is probably

I don't think it's the time to make it the default until it has a chance of working usefully. At the moment it doesn't, and it won't until I've fixed some fundamental bugs, which depends on separating the AS objects for the two VMs properly, which is more or less related to the VM reentrancy
