There are two issues here. The first is making Java 3D source available through SCSL, which is how all Java API's make their source code available. This is not political. The Java 3D team has decided to not make source code available through SCSL at this time.
The second issue is how do the people who are going to help with Java 3D 1.4 implementation work get access to the source code. This is a new process for us, so we are working on it as we go. But, I imagine that as we identify people who will do work, we will have some license agreement that will make access possible. This will be a very tightly managed process. The people doing implementation work will have a very tight relationship with the Java 3D team. We have to do it this way to guarantee a quality design and integration with the overall architecture of Java 3D.
