I absolutely agree with you Greg ,but it has nothing to do with the language and a grammar issue.Also I still believe that Away3D is the best not only among open source engines. AwayLite was not tested as I personally believe it would be unfair as it is light weight engine with lots of features striped out from it. Flare3D is pretty stuffed just like Away3D (although in terms of the toolbox versatility Away still wins) therefore the test was against the regular Away 3.6.1 Also I suppose you can guess without testing that AwayLite will take over because the performance gain of FLARE in comparison to Away3D is not that significant so far .
