Hi all -- I'm pleased to announce that osgBullet v2.0 has release candidates
available. I hope some of you will join in the testing of this, the first major
refresh of osgBullet since its debut.

Thanks for any and all feedback.
osgBullet v2.00.00 Release Notes
v2.00.00 is not backwards-compatible with osgBullet v1.xx. osgBullet-based
applications and projects will need to port their code to the new version.
Changes from v1.01.00 to v2.00.00 include the following:
* The osgbBullet library has been replaced with two libraries: osgbCollision and
osgbDynamics. Your project will need to link with the new libraries. The
v2.00.00 contains an analogous change in the namespaces and header file
directory structure.
* By linking with osgbCollision, your osgBullet application can use Bullet for
collision detection without a dependency on libBulletDynamics. The new
collision example program demonstrates this usage.
* The OSGToCollada class has been replaced by new rigid body creation
convenience routines. See the osgbDynamics/RigidBody.h header file. Nearly all
of the examples and tests use the new interface.
A new library, osgbInteraction, has been added to allow user interaction with
the physics simulation. The library contains the following classes:
* The HandNode class features a fully articulated hand model that can be
driven by a data glove or keyboard. Support for the P5 data glove is provided.
* The DragHandler allows the user to drag rigid bodies using the mouse.
* The LaunchHandler allows the user to fire objects into the scene.
* The SaveRestoreHandler allows the user to capture the physics simulation at
a particular point in time, then restore back to the capture point.
* New examples demonstrate hinge and slider constraints.
* The MotionState class now exposes routines to convert between Bullet collision
object and OSG coordinates while correctly accounting for differences due to
center of mass and scaling.
* A new example, saverestore, demonstrates saving current physics state and
restoring from file.
* Many classes are now documented using Doxygen.
