FLASH: Tired of the patronizing

[GDavies]

Hi Gang,


<gumpy_mode>


I don't know about you guys, but I'm rather tired of Mr Daniel Brown "The

adobe evangelist", sarcastic comments and patronizing tone.


This is the Flash list, not the get at macromedia tech support list.  I

found the MM guys insightful and helpful on a number of topics, I have yet

to see something good come from you email client.


I have Adobe products, use 'em every day.  Why don't you go and do something

useful, like find out why Illustrator 8.1 is a complete memory and resource

hog.

The ability to edit SVG content in a text editor was hardly the reason a


text-based format was decided upon. There are several reasons why you'd want


this content to be text based. For one thing, you could "generate" dynamic


SVG content out of any scripting system you'd like (Perl, C++, AppleScript,


etc.), you could view it, change it, author it, all with text commands. This


way, creation of content wouldn't be locked away in a binary format.


Other issues include being XML-based, variable scalability of any region,


interchange with surrounding HTML content (each can drive the other), etc.
