The last two pro’s you mentioned are the most important to keep up your fine Open Source work. So I’d say: step into AS3 with WP-Cumulus.

I think it’s more important to keep the speed up.

The older computers must be capable to run your flash app.

imho there’s no strong difference in size - of course, it would take some time before it is cached, but it would draw all that fonts faster - imho it is more important.

by the way, i’m glad there’s someone who still thinks of people with 56kbps)) there’s been time i had 28kbps - that was really killin thing

That would be an option, but if I do that, I’ll have to add future enhancements to both movies. In fact, there’s already a few tricks in the AS3 version that the AS2 one can’t do.

Is there not the option of releasing alongside the current release?

Those who prefer smaller filesize over optimization would be as happy as the optimization over filesize group.
