GGI I know and understand.  I'm happy that it's there,
and I'm happy that it's as far along as it is.

PenguinPlay, on the other hand, I'm wondering about.
What's it's goal, what problem is it trying to solve,
and what tools is it supposed to give me?  And I
mean specifics, not the general "it's going to be
the magic toolkit that will let you code a game in
under 5 seconds just by thinking" (this IS a serious
question, btw, not a criticism).  

What does PenguinPlay give me beyond what I get from
GGI?
