    I would like to see Flash grow into having standardized lib's like C and other high-level languages.

    Macromedia tried to adopt a similar concept by providing the widgets like scrollbars, buttons, etc in MX. But it's not quite the same as having a standardized module of code for say print functionality.

    With our game, we are trying to take this into consideration and writing each separate engine as a unique lib for flash instead of a specific component of the project.

    That way, the UI engine can work for any other project as well...for web, cd, whatever. The Actionscript is confined to just our game but instead is more generalized.

    Which is one reason this is taking so long...

    Once done, the idea is to release the core engines (with the exception of a few) under the GPL.
