Welcome to Xj3D codebase.

This are notes for the 21 October 2003 dev release of Xj3D.

Since Last Dev/RC Release:
-----------------------

  Parsing speed improvements for large sets of MF* fields. Anywhere from 20% to 
      70% faster.

  Overlay debugging. Added Fonstyle node support to Text2D overlay type

  EventUtilities debugging. Everything should be working as advertised now.

  External SAI debugging and continued implementation of the SAI general features
      importDocument() now implemented, as well as honouring most of the parameters
      on createX3DComponent().

  Several more nodes implemented IndexedTriangleSet, TriangleSet,

Major changes since M7:
-----------------------

  Moved CVS repository to a new location. Now directly hosted a xj3d.org


Known Issues:
-------------

    General:
        Huge amounts of garbage generated internally within Java3D's picking
        subsystem using Cone-based objects for those using J3D1.3.0. Fixed for
	1.3.1FCS.

    ECMAScript: Due to a change in Rhino 1.5R4, a number of things broke in our
        code. The changes were an all-or-nothing afair. So we've decided to fix
	the code to work with 1.5R4-1. That means you will need to upgrade your
	copy of Rhino to this version.  As a result, the standalone print()
	method that some browsers support, is no longer supported by us. For your
	code to run, you must use Browser.println() instead.

    MovieTexture
        In order to work, you need to have JMF installed.

    AudioClip
        The Java3D audio capabilities are exceedingly bug-ridden. If you use
	anything before 1.3.1beta, you'll not hear any audio content.

    browser
        GeoVRML and UMEL local resolution not supported in pre-compiled code,
            you need to specify the local installation path in DIYBrowser.java
            and recompile.
