Hi all:
Greetings! :)
I don't regularly monitor this list, but I am glad to see PanoSalado
has made it to being a topic... Even if there's a lot of
consternation. ;-)
Thanks Alfredo for the basic "how to" post; I'll make some comments
inline below, but want to note that there's an active forum, filled
with tidbits and updates over at
http://tinyurl.com/panosalado (long
url). All are encouraged to peruse and to post.

1a • The most recent downloads can be monitored for at:
http://code.google.com/p/panosalado/downloads/list
The difference between rev_128 and 129 is the addition of a
History.txt file; just administrative.
> 2 • Unzip rev_128_example.zip and rev_128.zip

> 3 • Copy panoramic pictures that you created in HUGIN in *
> rev_128_example\images* folder
>
> 4 • Edit "PanoSalado.xml" (in *rev_128_example* folder)
> You may found some tips in "XML Schema.txt" (in *rev_128 *folder)
4a • The XML Schema text file is good, but a little messy... That is
on my to-do list. :) There are also some posts regarding the XML for
PanoSalado at the flashpanos forums. To wit:

Coming soon! :)
We have just moved from alpha to beta testing with a user interface,
which will be friendly to folks who don't want to get their hands
dirty with MXML, Actionscript, etc. ;) Anyone who would like to be
notified about the user interface (codename:
"SpinControl:PanoSalado"), please email to:
revol...@panosalado.com .
> 5 • Ready to be used! *NO NEW COMPILATION IS NEEDED!!!!!!!!!!!!*
Woohoo!
As far as compilation goes, I should note that one issue which keeps
coming up is with the supplied "UserInterface.as/fla". The FLA
contains symbols which are required by the Actionscript file, so if
someone compiles the UserInterface.as out via mxmlc/Flex, it will
fail. Rewriting the example UserInterface.as so that it is 100% Flex
friendly is also on my to-do list. :)
Of course, we mostly just hear from people when they're having
trouble, but we also get some peeks at what people are doing with
PanoSalado. We LOVE to see links to projects... Here's a neat one --
no stitching required, except of the sewing machine variety ;-) :

Sorry for such a long initial hello, but I hope this helps out!
Cheers,
