No, we weren't in contact, I'm pretty new to the visualization niche.
I did an OSG 1.2 application to visualize detailed cortical neurons 
simulations and then adapted it to MPK. At that time (end of 2006) MPK 
was almost dead, but it was the only thing available for framebuffer 
compositing on multi-pipe systems.
Now we are moving to a cluster and it was a nice surprise to find out 
that the experience in MPK could be useful for some other library, in 
the beginning I was considering ParaComp and it looked very low level.

I'll take a look, thank you very much for the fix.
