The problems with posting messages forums is that you lose the attention of several OSG developers and contributors, such as Robert Osfield and myself. Mailing lists are much more efficient for me because the messages come to me, and I don't have to go anywhere, log in, and trawl for new messages scattered around in multiple discussion threads. As others have stated, this has all been discussed before, so that's all that needs to be said. _______________________________________________ osg-users mailing list osg-users@lists.openscenegraph.org http://lists.openscenegraph.org/listinfo.cgi/osg-users-openscenegraph.org
