Tarun's making good progress on the pydy viz package. The python code is
basically done and he's working on the js stuff now.

https://github.com/PythonDynamics/pydy-viz

Couple of questions for the group:

1. Where should this package belong?

Options are:

in sympy.physics.mechanics
in a standalone package (as it is now)
in a new PyDy distribution that includes visualization as a package
other

These also beg the questions:

- should we create a new PyDy package that has all the mechanics code and
the new stuff and make SymPy a dependency?
- just push everything into sympy? (people have varying opinions on this
practice)

If we are in SymPy our tests are in SymPy, which is super beneficial
because we rely so heavily on SymPy's code base. It will be more so once
the new vector calc module is done. But there is also confusion because we
have two names: SymPy and PyDy and installation is weird. We are going to
continue to develop numerical and visualization related stuff that doesn't
really fit into SymPy's mission as a CAS, but you do find similar stuff in
Mathematica, for example.

Any thoughts?
