Second Life .prims project
John of the libsl team has been working with the .prims XML 3d primitive format recently. I’ve been looking for a good, common XML format to serialize 3d data for a while. This looks like it might be what I’m looking for. On my libsl TODO list is a project to create a hardened specification…
