Specification
Ok, this is currently just a vague list of stuff, but in the end it should provide detailed informations about what the Stratagus engine can do and what it can't do. It should also act as a guideline to people who want to contribute stuff to see if their work is directly useable in Stratagus or if it will require modifications.
