If any of you manage to make it to the AGC, you might want to check out
a very modest but neat demo I worked up by integrating Project Darkstar
and a very popular AAA 3D engine.  I won't be at the conference
personally but I would be happy to answer any questions about how the
integration works, or working with Project Darkstar here.  The demo
should be available at the Darkstar booth.

Best regards,
