Robert,

Thank you for the clarification. The text is still on the Wiki however.

It's been one week with OSG and so far, here are my observations:

Pros:
* Great code quality. A good balance between creativity and the use of STL.
* Interesting architecture - specially for the plug-ins.
* The most responsive mailing list I have ever seen for an OSS project. 
Great attitude, focused on helping. No flame war... Keep it up guys ;)
* Extensive set of examples. I'm currently going through those, and It's 
probably the best way of learning OSG.

Cons:
* The documentation blows. Thankfully, this is being adressed by the guys at 
Skew Matrix. As a newbie, my biggest problem was figuring out the recent 
history: change of server, the relation between OSG and 
VirtualPlanetBuilder. Basically, it's not possible to know the current state 
of OSG without some major head scratching ;)

I'm OK at writing manuals (I actually enjoy this), so I'll take a shot at it 
and document the directory structure for Windows. Jean-Sebastien sent me a 
detailed email about this (thanks J-S!) and I hope to be able to translate 
this into one or two illustrations. Many times, just having screenshots & 
diagrams of the process would save a lot of time. This is a *visual* project 
after all ;)

Thanks everybody. Great work!
