Thanks for the info, Gordon.  I have been asking for the MXMLG/FXG spec for
a while now.  So, if that is something that could be donated, it will be of
a big help for the FlexJS project.

Alex, my intention is to write an XSLT translator to make MXMLG/FXG and SVG
to seamlessly work together.  I have the beginnings of such an XSLT
available here [1] and a basic example here[2]

But if we have a programatic spec for FXG available, I can plug it in into
a tool like Altova MapForce [3] to automatically generate an XSLT for FXG
<-> SVG conversion.  This would speed up things a lot and makes visual
fidelity matching between Flash and HTML5 apps that much closer.

Thanks,
Om
