Why does that invalidate the tool? Why do we care what crap other people do? This is about Slim teams building a better solution using whatever the best available technology is. As is pointed out elsewhere OpenLazlo compiles XML to Flash SWF files, so they believe the runtime is perfectly sound and fit for purpose. Your issue seems to be with lax development and poor production methodology, i.e. untrained developers building web pages in a undisciplined way. Surely we can trust Slim-sponsored teams not to build crap with Flash tools? Or do you think that when they see how easy it is to build stuff they'll just go crazy? -- CardinalFang You're only young once, but you can be immature forever... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ CardinalFang's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=962 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=25321 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
