Just as a warning, Adobe is probably this year going to push SWF as an official standard, ala OOXML... at least that's the rumor... >> A nice additional feature would be to make use of Jordan's screen >> resolution dropper on the XO to allow Flash activities to run at >> 600x450, which would likely quadruple performance.

Yep, hopefully the code will stabilize over the next week now that the holiday's are over. The Code freeze starts after FOSDEM, the release itself won't be out till late Feb. It will also have support for the MIT-SHM extension, which works now, and also helps with performance issues. We hope the combination of these two performance hacks helps on low end hardware like the XO. - rob - _______________________________________________ Sugar-devel mailing list Sugar-devel@lists.sugarlabs.org http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel
