====== The SMX Components Set ======

This project started life as a custom set of BBC News Website components for the award winning [[http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/shared/spl/hi/americas/04/vote_usa/map/html/default.stm|US Election Map]] and [[http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/shared/vote2005/flash/html/default.stm|UK General Election Coverage]].

Since then it has been open sourced on osflash and grown into a fully fledged UI alternative to MM v2, including features such as:

  * An XML templating markup SMXML.
  * Different component themes.
  * Simple skinning and styling.
  * Fast redrawing and resizing
  * Small footprint (around 60k including skins)
