Any future in porting it to Win? Any inspiration from Adobe Edge? I am happy that there are more and more potential replacements for flash in this respect, hope

  I made a preliminary effort towards a Windows port a few months ago. It's running, but not really usable. Here's a screenshot: http://radiapp.com/radi-windows-sshot-20110805.jpg http://radiapp.com/radi-windows-sshot-20110805.jpg I haven't looked deeply at Edge since the initial release. One fundamental difference is that Radi's output is completely custom rendering into either <canvas> or <video>, while Edge uses CSS for animation. I wrote a blog post about that with lots more detail: [1] Although there's some overlap, the approaches are basically complementary. Hence I'm hoping to make Radi into not so much a competitor to apps like Edge and Hype, but rather a more creation-oriented tool that can be used together with these other apps that focus more on building entire sites. Now that e-books are becoming basically HTML5 packages, I'm hoping to find some opportunity for Radi in that market as well... But I haven't done any deeper research into that yet.
