Ya never know; it may have been people
like Justin
that got the folks at Sun to perk up
their ears.
What's that old saying?... "the
sqeaky wheel gets the oil" ?
Whatever the reasons - the outcome is
GREAT! And thanks to Sun for
making a very wise, strategic decision.

Doing things like wrapping Java 3D defeats the purpose of both open software
and the open source process that asks us to improve the original offering,
in this case Java3D. Those of us who are interested in doing 3D rendering
in Java need to devote our energies to improving Java 3D itself.

All,
Regarding the discussion thread from last week, I
decided to send an e-mail to
Doug Twilleager, the lead at Sun for Java
3D.
You can judge his answer for yourself.

memory. I've had good success using the Java3D packages, but if I can get
better rendering from Xith3D, I would look into using it instead. Any
feedback from you or anyone else would be appreciated.
Thanks.

Justin,
What are you moving your customers to place of Java3D?
Thanks also for the great background info!

All,
Being a new member of this list, this is pretty disheartening news, to say the least.
On the other hand, this could be an opportunity for the Open Source community
to lend a hand, working with the folks from Sun who are knowledgeable about
the 3D packages and go beyond 1.4.
I guess the ques
