I attempted to upgrade to open-dis-3.0 and ran into some #include problems I would have to patch with quilt, but no big deal. I am just not sure on the compatibility with delta3d, they list opendis 2.5 as a dependency. So we might want to have 2.5 in there just in case. We can always upgrade to 3.0 later. -James P.S.
