Hi all! Have followed the future discussion and though maybe I should share my opinions too. I'm very happy with OpenSG. I think it has worked out great for us. We started using it a year and a half ago. We had some aspect problems that Gerrit helped us with. As he fixed them in a separate branch we have been somewhat stuck in 1.6. That hasn't been a big deal since the stuff we really would like to see won't appear until 2.0. And I hope that our aspect problems will be fixed in 2.0, won't they Gerrit? You haven't forgotten about us? ;)
The major stuff we would like in 2.0 is VBOs and the improved occlusion culling. We are also about to add tessellation support in our product and from what I've understood is that the current tessellator in OpenSG is not perfect and it does not seem to be high priority either. What is the plan here? Are there any plans to finish it? I can use another api for the tessellation so it's not a big issue. On that note...does anybody know of a good tessellator api? Commercial or free. I totally agree with the build problems, it took a while to find out how to build OpenSG the first time. I also agree with that we need more example codes and demos. As for the documentation, I think it's ok as it is. It's much better to put developer efforts into developing. The source code and the mailing list can help if something is hard to understand. Although I think that the wiki is a good idea. We use trac ourselves and think it's great. On the marketing front I think something should be done to make more people choose OpenSG. More announcements on the web and demos. I also think a "customer" list would be good. With links to all companies and organizations that use OpenSG. So potential new users can see that OpenSG is widely used...(as I think....and hope...it is ;) Regards Fredrik Andersson ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
