In my honest opinion I think that we should think about how the model creation process should be done. Placing models into the environment is a secondary topic. > 3) Should this app be separate from the main simulator, or > integrated (pause the simulation and you can start editing things)? I think a separate app should be sufficient by now. The integrated solution would be better, but I think it's not a needed feature. > There is always room for more sensors and models.

Having an easy way to create new models people would contribute with they creations, without it, people doesn't use to make new models. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
