Something with a > structure like (I'm sure others can fill in many of the gaps caused > by my ignorance): I think that it is a good idea to provide a use-case/problem statement page with solutions. This may be a good idea for providing rationales for all of the facility changes in the current draft. I also think it would not be a bad idea to include solution pages and discuss how a certain solution addresses multiple problems / uses (for either facilities in the current draft or proposed for future drafts). > Requirement: > Simple script-driven drawing for rendering dynamic bitmap graphics > on the fly. I think the need is for graphics drawing of any kind: either bitmap or vector. Obviously it al needs to be rasterized to the screen, but there is a need for the drawing commands themselves should be more flexible. Narrowing it to "dynamic bitmap graphics" needlessly eliminates much of the authoring use-case. > Use Cases: > Charts - Plotkit + etc. > Simple games - > Mathematics - > Decorative effects - > etc. For example, nearly all of these use-cases benefit from vector drawing commands over bitmap drawing commands (except perhaps decorative effects).
