The story tightens....the plot thickens.....
If we stick to the two-phase "scheme-of-things" (which I think is the
correct approach), what we need, short term is:
Phase 1:
- Some way to get VRML "moving". :-)
- A sufficiently "open" way for intercommunication/networking, where details
can be pounded out later.
...and in the long term:
Phase 2:
- Pound out the details, protocols, and whatnot in the intercommunication/
networking.
I feel tmat Mitra's proposal (which is alesady quite close to Sony e.t.c.),
perhaps with a nice intermix of the SGI proposal, will suffice nicely to
give us Phase 1.
My (cough) proposal focuses more on Phase 2 stuff, and my Phase 1 stuff
isn't much good anyway :-) so it can safely be ignored at this stage, IMHO.
Are we actually getting somewhere? I think so! Amazing! :-)
