Justin-

Thanks for the reply.  I could do some fundraising.
I will see what's out there but it might not be
much at first.  I would like to take the project
to the code repository.  I am trying to release
the Java Media book, I could get a little cash
to do some prototyping ideas to put in the
book with a link to the code repository and
an acknoweldgement of you and whomever else
you want.  The problem is that there are really
pushing me to be done in a month--let me know
if you are available on that short a time scale.

Onto other things.  I have always respected
you.  You seem very talented.  What's going
on with you, Alan and Yumetech?  I wonder
if we could propose a grant together.  Are
you working with Don Brutzman?  If you would
have to kill me if you told me, then don't
please!

Take care---

Alex

Well, as always, I'm interested. If I have the time I'd be able to help
out, but it just depends on other projects etc. In particular, if the
code is headed in the direction of the code repository, then I'm even
more interested :) We (Yumetech) don't have a project that would need an
imposter implementation currently, so there's no immediate interest on
that front (unlike the overlays and particle system, which we do have a
need for), but we'll do anything for money :)

Have you seen Chris Thorne's Rez project? This does a lot of that work
for you.
