Re: [Gnash-dev] goodbye backend/ welcome gui/ ?

[strk]

Tom, there's a DESIGN file under gui/
Implementation of the 'backend' is still under backend/
( I was wrong about the "goodbye" part )

Feel free to update that file if you find out more.

BTW: I noticed that elvis.swf plays too fast, and not smooth
(ie, it goes slower when processor is busy) so there might be problems with
those timers
