Hey Daniel,

Once more some feedback to the new version (binary downloaded off your 
website). The SVG import worked like a charm once I converted it from 
one-file-multiple-layers to one-file-per-clip. However, it seemed to me 
that I could no longer change the background color using

<background color="#ffffff"/>

I had to change my XML code to

<background red="255" green="255" blue="255"/>

which is perfectly feasible, but I did not figure out why it didn't work 
the other way anymore (I also took a brief look at the XSLT files on the 
repository, and from them it seems as though the first way *should* 
still be supported).

Anyway, thanks for the great work and thanks for keeping swfmill alive!

Regards,

Jens
