Several of you may be interested to try out the dive 3 *beta* binary release,
which currently may be picked up at:

ftp://ftp.sics.se/pub/dive/dive-3.0-beta.tar.Z

or the much smaller with only sgi binaries:

ftp://ftp.sics.se/pub/dive/dive-3.0-beta-mips.tar.Z

Dive is a multiuser VR system that have many of the features that will
be issues in VRML 2, such as gateways/links, behaviours, interaction,
multiuser support, etc. It should help to give you some ideas on these
issues.

Currently, there are binaries for Sgi irix5.3, solaris2.4-xgl,
sunos4.1-xgl.

There will probably be a VRML interface sometime in the future.

To run:
(1) Set the DIVEPATH environment varable to the data directory in the release
(2) cd to bin/xxx, where xxx is one of the platforms.
(3) run vishnu - the default dive browser.

Hope it works, it is still a beta,...
