Mr. Ferneau,
How odd. I could swear that the title of this thread was "Java3D Poor
Distribution Process" and not encompassing all of Java, 1.x and beyond...
And it was my intent to provide information about an upcoming solution. I'm
ever so sorry I bothered to mention it, since you seem to know all about it.
Please forgive my presumption. I'll not say another word on the subject.
