Sandy, today on the call we discussed yours and my suggested additions. They are now added: > The declarative graphics approach is key to leveraging the Web application development infrastructure that is increasingly widespread. By putting most graphic elements directly in the DOM we gain access to the huge Web development infrastructure and can produce graphic applications that appear as normal as any web based application. We also have made good progress integrating massive amounts of graphics data, e.g. large scale CAD meshes, with declarative graphics. Graphics appropriate for the DOM goes there and graphics not appropriate for the DOM is accessible but not slowed by unnecessary DOM access. > > Further support for Declarative 3D is also under consideration in the standards arena. The Extensible 3D (X3D) Graphics standard is already well aligned with HTML5 and the W3C Recommendations, and has found strong design principles in common with Declarative 3D by participating in this effort. The Web3D Consortium is now working to evolve X3D versions 3.4 and 4.0 in concert with Declarative3D. all the best, Don -- Don Brutzman Naval Postgraduate School, Code USW/Br brutzman@nps.edu Watkins 270, MOVES Institute, Monterey CA 93943-5000 USA +1.831.656.2149 X3D graphics, virtual worlds, navy robotics http://faculty.nps.edu/brutzman
