Every now and then things fall in place and I wish I had more time to connect them together and build a cool open source project. An example is writing a transcoder that generates swf (flash) output from batik svg input. The project should also provide a Graphics2D subclass SWFGraphics2D that uses the batik infrastructure (gvt) and renders into a swf file similar to SVGGraphics2D. This way any java program can generate swf output as simple as printing. Frameworks like javaswf or jgenerator will help with the low-level details of the swf file format. Why is this necessary ? It's not, but it would be cool. svg is great but hasn't caught on yet and swf is basically in every browser out there. Imagine for example jcharts or jfreechart with swf output etc (there must be tons of examples where printing to swf would be useful).
