Well, instead of keeping the new experimental versions too closed, I've 
started adding it to the svn. I've been following the way the PV3D 
project has been using branches and I think it works well.

The 'elegant' branch is a version of Tweener that changes the way things 
work internally. It uses real instances for tweening data, some features 
are used in a way to remove checks and achieve better performance and 
memory usage, 'sequences' are a natural extension of the classes, etc.

Syntax is not changed, but internally, it's supposed to be a lot more 
well organized - hence the name 'elegant'. It's currently AS3 only.

I wouldn't recommend anyone using or testing it. Because I'm redoing a 
good bunch of things, it's all broken apart and it's not supposed to 
work well. It barely tweens things now, and the vast majority of the old 
code is commented out. There's also a few other changes that might or 
might not become final (for example, the way easing functions work) so 
it's experimental.

I'll write more about it in the future. Right now it's just a piece of 
crazy broken code.
