Very well said.  The foundation of this project the DynLayer is not stable
yet we just keep piling more and more onto it...

Hi Eytan,

As you know, I am interested. I would also like to see this project maturing
with respect to the insight into some of the other problems that keep this
effort from becoming a true reference in the field, it has tremendous value
but
it falls short of expectations :
1. It fails to be cross-platform/cross-browser because there are no levels
of
functionality identified. Instead it's a single-shot full whistles and bells
API, of which 'this' doesn't work on Mozilla, that doesn't work on IE5 for
Mac... etc...
2. It fails to be stable because some in the dev community find their little
sinewave animation bull* more important than stabilizing DynLayer itself.
It's
like some prefer a funny racoon tail hanging from their rearview mirror,
instead
of a decent running engine.

At least I detracted some of the stones coming your way - they're now
heading my
way :))

CU,
 Dann
