 * Why does this plugin require Microsoft’s SilverLite to work? We use Linux and
   there is no way we will touch SilverLite. Please explain why dependency on such
   a non-standard technology?

 * I wrote this Plugin as an excuse really to play around with MS Silverlight at
   the time.
 * At some point I will probably rewrite the Plugin to use JS libraries instead,
   but I cannot guarantee when.

 * I really like how simple and effective this plugin is but I have had issues when
   not on Silverlight capable machines. Are there any similarly minimalistic alternatives?

 * Not that I am aware of. That’s why I wrote the Plugin in the first place. 🙂
