A french guy did start to make a Softimage|3D (not XSI) open source clone back in the late 1990s! It was called Moonlight|3D! (yep, cloned the "|" pipe as well) Here is a screenshot: http://www.creativecrash.com/downloads/applications/3d-apps/c/moonlight-3d-atelier The author died around the year 2000. Moonlight 3D still continues today, but in name only; the new team writes in Java and they have dropped the Softimage legacy.
