		<description>Ryan,

Interesting note on Illustrator.  My team has recently been playing with Catalyst/Gumbo and have been experimenting with both AI/FXG and FW/PNG files to determine their impact on code size, runtime speed, etc.  While we don&#039;t have any definitive numbers to share yet our assumption is that FXG will be the winner.  The code size seems larger, but we suspect render time will be faster.  Using AI/FC I created a gauge component that functions using a state transition, effectively allowing us to create very rich visual gauges with almost no ActionScript (aka... more work done at design time vs. dev time).  If you want to chat more let us know... We&#039;re doing a lot of AI/FC work.</description>

		<description>Glad to see Illustrator will be able to export to FXG (or does it already?)  I much prefer the Illustrator drawing tools to the Flash drawing tools for creating vectors.  If only I had a copy of Catalyst to play with...</description>
