A better parser would be a major PITA, since it requires, well, parsing the whole VRML standard XD What about using openvrml (as an optional dependency, since it's huge...) Or maybe support some other very common format like 3ds (lib3ds, for example). Both library are lgpl so I see no issue for their usage with kicad. The whole source distro is 433KB so it shouldn't be too difficult to use (in fact 3DS uses the same mesh model used by kicad IIRC) -- Lorenzo Marcantonio Logos Srl
