[Laszlo-dev] delete amazon autopngs?

[John Sundman]

I thought that I had missed some new image format (autopng), but a  
little googling seems to indicate that autopng's are a Laszlo-ism.

I'm confused, however, as to whether they're a tool that needs to be  
explained to people moving over to Legals for DHTML, or whether  
they're merely an artifact of our own interal processes.

Any light on this would be appreciated.
