Really, really, really NEAT thingie! Planning to implement a new project using Raphael, it seems to fit it nice.
However, researching it was a little troublesome, because it’s a new framework and there are some JS alternatives already. Comparison of SVG and Canvas gets a little confusing at first. Presentation podcast from the author, Baranovskiy, was quite convincing though. And I like his attitude… 🙂
We already managed to implement resizing and rotation (think: trigonometry & tangents) using mouse events, which was not very hard. This is gonna be my first BIG and serious JS work, which, I guess, will require a lot of optimization (which I “pervertedly” seem to enjoy somehow 🙂 ).
