[osflash] New osflash project? FlashWiki?

[Arnoud Bos]

Hi Claus / Chris,

You guys are right but it means making 2 front-ends right? (xhtml, which is
in fact a site already and then a flash presentation layer on top of it). Of
course this isn't really the case if you just want to use the xhtml for data
only... But adding a stylesheet to XHTML seems a lot less work than showing
the xhtml in flash... You need to parse it again to find certain nodes, do
stuff with it etc...

I knew these kind of things were possible (see also "ripple" on osflash from
peter hall), but it seems a lot more work. But I'll have a look at seffs.
Didn't know it. It seems interesting so I'll give her a testdrive.
 
I like the way you (Claus) are always heading to standards. Makes me think
about deng (2 ?). Now that was a nice project...
Any news about that project? Is it definitely exit? 

Arnoud

Claus,

I was just going to say the same thing. ;-) Flash could just read the
XMTML and display it. The possibilites are endless; I can certainly
imagine quite a few cool things being done with this, even though
Flash isn't supposed to do Wikis ;-)
