There are two systems of organizing classes in Flash: the package system and the inheritance structure. The package system was apparently designed for Flash coders' convenience, so they can easily decide what to import. The inheritance structure has nothing to do with this.
Most importantly, the classes that inherit from DisplayObject (TextField, DisplayObjectContainer, SimpleButton etc - please look at Gnash's Doxygen diagrams or Adobe documentation for more details) are mixed in with the other classes that inherit directly from Object It seems fine to use the package system to organize the simple Objects, but why also move DisplayObjects there, when it separates the central and related API classes like MovieClip and TextField from each other? I mentioned that I personally would like these classes to stay in the libcore directory where they are easy to find, and would like at least some discussion before they are moved. Secondly, classes such as XML_as are being moved to XMLDocument_as, Key_as to Keyboard_as. Should an AS3 naming scheme be preferred over AS2? Most importantly there is *no documentation* in the new classes to explain what AS2 classes they implement. bwy -- Yes, YouTube does work in Gnash http://www.gnu.org/software/gnash/ Benjamin Wolsey, Software Developer - http://benjaminwolsey.de
