[Q]Poor creature without feet on the ground.[/Q]
 Yes. Im so high on pot I'm just sitting here giggeling without any knowledge 
of the world outside. Im totaly disconnected.

 [Q]This 3d crap is around since director 8, since them the users could 'start 
making quality'[/Q]
 Im not saying Director is THE thing but back in the days when Shockwave 3d 
came it really was good. 
 I want to improve not take a step back and win cheap voters. Populism it's 
called and as I see it it never brings any good.

 [Q]This way they have superior coding practices, with OOP, etc. [/Q]
 I thing you have some facts wrong. Lingo is OOP. 
 a = script("my script").new() 
 a.doThis("something")
 Or is'nt it?

 Something I would like to have is Typed variables becouse the code gets easier 
to structure and you dont have to try everything before you know if it works.

 [Q]Because Director is NOT user friendly, Lingo looks like a language for the 
80's[/Q]
 Yep. And English is a language of the 1700's. Still works. And why add AS 2.0 
? Whats good with it? If anything add a powerful language like JAVA or C++. Why 
As2. At least AS 3.0. Why pick another slow, untyped, highlevel, 
semi-script-language?

 And why not add every language in the world? Would be a swell to create the 
examples. 
 In Ada do this:
 in JAVA do this:
 in JavaScript do this:
 in Lingo do this:
 in c++ do this:
 in c do this:
 in .....


 [Q]Everyone today uses flash, so IF they plan to atract new users for 
DIErector gess where they will come from?[/Q]
 Not flash I tell you. They have already got Flash. Why would they switch. And 
why are they using Flash. Cos' all the development the last four years have 
been done on Flash and Director have been neglated by Macromedia. If the same 
effort would have been put into Director it would have been far more powerful 
then Flash. 
 But OK. You stay with flash and stream video all night long. Im staying with 
Shockwave and making games.

 [Q]So, go on, keep adding all this crap to please people like this pot 
head.The user base will not increase, new content will be even more rare, the 
penetration of the plugin will keep falling.Good vaporware to you.[/Q]
 Its the same with Apples Mac and the Linux OP's. Just scrap em'. They are not 
needed.
