How they will know? Theres some way to get feedback about this, like "rendering time: 3.8 seconds". ... I read this mail-list for pure entertainment. I am trying to imagine what cool things lua will allow. But seems more a improvement of speed. Speed will allow cool things to happen. So is more like a indirect improvement (and probably a huge one). Speed is sexy but not much entertaining at first, seems a enabler. So.. This is great news!, and herald of other awesome things to come :DDD -- -- ℱin del ℳensaje. _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
