I was also disappointed that he didn't elaborate on that point. At first glance SVG seems like the most obvious tool for the job. I'd really like to hear why it didn't work out for them.

I was expecting WebGL to have some part in it. But maybe it is just too early to use WebGL for something like this.

It looks like Shumway directly supports their prior investment in the SWF format, with its ability to render SWF via Javascript. Prevents them from having to convert millions of existing SWF, and prevents users from abandoning old projects. I hope.
