Wondering if anyone has done an open-source converter for
ESRI Shape files to X3D?

There are a bunch of converters listed on the X3D Resources page,
including some excellent commercial products such as Okino Polytrans.

p.s. Also found this on the Oracle site, not clear if it is open source.
Would be interesting if this was hooked up to Xj3D perhaps.  We could
then integrate it into X3D-Edit.  Not clear if the following converter
is open source or not; probably not, appears to be part of the
Oracle database distribution.
