Hi All,

As part of my prep work of the OSG for the up coming 3.0 I will be
moving osgIntrospection and the associated wrappers out into their
separate project, and looking for a member of the OSG community to
step up and take over management of this project.  My thought is that
one would place the osgIntrospection library, the introspection
wrappers and the genwrapper tool into this project, with something
like the following structure:



 ProjectName/include/osgIntrospection
 ProjectName/src/osgIntrospection

 ProjectName/src/genwrapper

 ProjectName/src/osgWrappers/osg/
 ProjectName/src/osgWrappers/osgDB
 ProjectName/src/osgWrappers/osgUtil
 ...

The osgIntrospection library itself could actually be renamed as it is
actually OSG specific - it was written by Marco Jez to be able to wrap
any C++ project, so could easily be rename to something like
cppIntrospection/introspection,or whatever the new project lead feels
appropriate.   genwrapper is also not specific to OSG.

The only part that need be specific to the OSG is the wrappers that
genwrapper generates, potentially this could even be maintained as
another separate project, so you have a generic library and
application for generating wrappers, then you have the prebuilt OSG
wrappers.

I would like parties that use osgIntrospeciton to come forward on what
they would like to do with project and also for individuals/groups to
come forward and volunteer to lead/contribute to this project.  Once
we get some consensus I'll package up the project in a way that makes
it appropriate to pick up and take the reigns on.

I would like to inject some urgency into this effort as my plan for
the next developer release of the OpenSceneGaph (2.9.9) is for it to
be made with osgIntrospection already moved out, and would like to
make 2.9.9 in the next week to ten days.  My desire to get the ball
rolling on this is that I'm shaping up the OSG dev release series for
the 3.0 stable release, to be made this summer.

Thanks in advance for your help,

Robert.
