Oh wow. That is way to cool!!!! I suggest you merge your work with the khronos group. It would be really nice to see a embedded OpenML implementation. I'm looking into this since I plan to implement Java3D /JavaX media layer for GNU Classpath/Kaffe in the near future. http://www.khronos.org/ ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email sponsored by: Free pre-built ASP.NET sites including Data Reports, E-commerce, Portals, and Forums are available now.
