Hi,
=20
I have read many discussions about implementing SWF with Wine or GTK #. =
Dotgnu.org is implementing SWF using X11.=20
=20
It seems to be a better option than Wine/GTK# because:
=20
1. Does not require additional library files from Wine/GTK#
=20
2. Runs on Mac OSX, Linux, Windows, etc. whereas at present neither Wine =
nor GTK# runs on Mac OSX.
=20
I wonder why implementing SWF using X11 has not been discussed in the =
mono project. Or did I miss those messages? :-)
