I absolutely agree with you! The worst thing would be a pessimism which

little bit). So please: let's have a look at the facts and don't
speculate
SO much.
There is no speculation in what I am posting. Yumetech has been heavily
involved in "the future" of Java3D behind the scenes. We've been in
discussions with all levels of management there (up to and including
their CTO), gathering info, commmunity opinion and more. I am telling
you that Java _is_ dead as far as Sun is concerned internally, they just
won't openly publically say it. Sun has a corporate policy of never
announcing anything's demise. If you want to see this in effect, head
over to the JSDT list. Same thing has been happening for the 5 years!
