[X3D-Public] XMPP / XML schema JScript ( Networksensor )

Hi Sven-Erik

Maybe EUR 0.02 from my side:

You think about "multi X3D nodes and non X3D nodes like
CarSim interfacing Mathworks Simulink."""

And you think about using an open protocol like one from the IETF.

I'm not sure about the network architecture you are aiming at (would be in-
teresting to know), but regarding the network interface within the Web3D 
scene,
I guess you would like to use something "Network Sensor" like (something 
that
provides event distribution from one scene instance to all instances, 
shared
states that are stored on the server and can be modified/influenced by any
scene instance) and something for chat and avatars.

If this is true, maybe you can take advantage of the results of my
experimental(!) open source project http://simulrr.sourceforge.net .
That open source project (currently pre-alpha and currently stopped)
provides some X3D prototypes that examplify a network interface
that is more specific than the Network Sensor and hence more easy-to-use
yet experimental and of course it *uses* the Network Sensor. I do not only 
use
server side calculations provided by the network sensor natively, but
additionally I use what I call CBSS (Client Based Server Software) and an
arbitration mechanism that selects one scene instance to execute the CBSS.

Hence you can implement your own "server" software without changing the 
server.

I do not mean you can use those X3D prototypes unchanged (although it could
be an interesting challenge to join or fork the sourceforge project and
implement XMPP support), but maybe you find some ideas about the interfaces
of those X3D Prototypes that are helpful for your students.

The X3D prototypes and the Concepts' Descriptions are licensed by an LGPL
so you can do derivative work without bad conscience.

I have stopped that project for personal reasons, so you need not worry 
about
a huge amount of updates :-)

Kind regards
Christoph
