I know that java3d team is now working hard on 1.3 release, which seems to be quite a big improvement compared to 1.2, both performance and feature wise. But could you share some light on how future of java3d will look like ? I'm not talking now about technical detail (pluggable occluders, pixels shaders etc) but about politics.
AFAIK some funding was cut off. And next version of java3d (not bugfix, but something really different) is not a small undertaking. What is a probable future of java3d ? Small sun team making bugfixes and waiting for world economy to recover (and opengl2.0 to appear) ? Multi-company development ? Some kind of open-but-controlled coding ? GPLing java3d and forgetting about having a single standard ? If we are on the subject - do you think that java3d source will ever be available for 'masses' ? I'm not talking about giving it away - just being able to browse/play with it.
