If someone who has the time to cesate a "binary standard" based on the vrml
ascii, and then provide a free parser and code (so that it can be twsaked
and improved by others with the time) this would be a good direction to
protect work on the net...
<waxing wishful>
oh, that the people in this wonderful frontier would share, and ask to
take, accept "no" where it comes, provide credit with a "yes" until the
time when stealing others work would be so unthinkable it would happen so
rarely that _everyone_ would know when it was done, and justice would be
communal, swift and decisive...
