I'm not very familiar with Adobe.Poly, but from
a quick glance, the biggest differences are

a) My library is based on composing independent
   primitives.  Poly seems to be designed for
   a straight linear hierarchy.

b) I can capture constraints that affect multiple
   types.  There's an example of this in
   print_sequence.cpp.  I don't think Poly
   could handle this at all.
