I'm normally a lurker, because osg is something I'd use for the project I'll get started on just as soon as I get around to it... You know how it goes.
I'm chiming in here because I was curious about the discussion of implementing in C++ vs. Lua. Is Lua really that much more popular for GUI design? Any particular reason for this? What are the relative advantages/disadvantages? I do understand C++ lacks reflection, but we're not talking about serialization here. I've never used Lua for anything, so I'm in no place opine, but I would point out that someone like me would clearly prefer C++ if for no other reason than familiarity. So there is an audience for a C++ version.
