MNG compression is better than APNG compression. MNG can be lossless (using PNG) and lossy (JNG - JPEG with alpha channel).

We don't need the backward-compatibility. I prefer the use of MNG instead APNG in ogg and other media containers.

APNG could be a transitional image format for browsers even them support MNG.

Because of OggSpots, an extra presentational format for presentation slide-like stuff isn't needed

In a presentation, you can also just pause the presentation, video for showing things.

Some people, including staff members of Mozilla, believe MNG should be replaced by APNG, a superset extension of PNG with multi-image support, but that should still be backwards-compatibility.

I, non-Xiph member, wonder on other hand if OggMNG should become OggAPNG or actually keep the project as MNG.

Keep it as mng because apng and mng are NOT THE SAME things:

mng >>>http://www.libpng.org/pub/mng/

apng >>>http://animatedpng.com/
