I didn't boast about anything. I created it a while ago because I needed one for a mobile editor. I never made any publicity about it. Just that there are talks about a (needed, IMHO) binary format. I didn't know it was _bad_ as per anyone's opinion. Is AMF this (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Action_Message_Format)? <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Action_Message_Format>If so, looks very like transport and flash-specific, isn't it? What is (summarized) the reasoning for it to be _bad_ ? - Chris -
