I was a little bit wrong about that.

It run great on Firefox 10 on Win and Mac because they have hardware acceleration. Firefox 10 on my Ubuntu doesn't do hardware acceleration so even that it supports CSS 3D animations are slow as hell.

Microsoft also works hard on hardware acceleration in IE10, so it will probably run just fine there, whenever it will be released.

It's true, that being 'webkit-only' feels like good ol' IE-only sites. But that's a cost that you need pay to play with edge web technologies.

Thanks for getting back. Note that I _do_ consider the project cool and well - I know it works in FF 10, I tried. :)

I really just don't like to see the next gap in browser support and hate to see 'support everything but IE 6' turn into 'support nothing but the latest chrome'.

This is nothing against your project, in fact I think for this particular experiment you _had_ to push the requirements up.

Bottom line: No offense intended.

I didn't find it offensive at all, no worries :)

Simply the interest about this project is far more bigger than I could expect and more and more people are confused about the browser support in it. And it really is confusing because today it's webkit-only. Firefox 10 is around the corner, but not just there yet, and Firefox 9 users may feel like they are excluded: "hey, I have latest Firefox, Y U NO WORK!?" ;)
