Hi Inderpreet,

Welcome and thanks for reaching out, there is definitely the need of a 3d
viewer for mediawiki and brl-cad could add some of the needed features.
Probably you could contact Bryan Davis, since he offered himself as GsoC
mentor for such a project:
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Mentorship_programs/Possible_projects#New_media_types_supported_in_Commons

I'm also CC'ing Fabrice Florin, product manager of the multimedia team,
because I guess that the 3d viewer could be somehow related to the
Multimedia Viewer.

I hope it helps. Cheers,
Micru
