The problem (as per my last discussion with Sun regarding this) is that we can not legally allow Java 3D to be downloaded (without being able to technically guarantee it isn't being downloaded in a "banned" country). So if you are distributing on CD (and obviously not in a "banned" country) then it isn't an issue, but for electronic (Internet) distribution it's a "no go".
(I believe the same applies for Java itself) I get plenty of tech support "problems" from customers that are confused and struggle to properly download Java and Java 3D. It would be a great benefit to Java developers if we were legally able to package our applications to avoid such issues. - John Wright Starfire Research Paul Brown wrote: > > From the Java3D 1.3.1 readme file: > > "Sun Microsystems allows vendors to distribute the Java 3D(TM) Runtime > environment with their Java programs" > > So what is the issue with regard to licencing and distribution? > > Thanks, > -Paul > > =========================================================================== > To unsubscribe, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and include in the body > of the message "signoff JAVA3D-INTEREST".
