[x3d-public] updated X3D node, statement inventory spreadsheets: FreeWrl

[Don Brutzman]

Congratulations to a familiar "dark horse" player that has emerged in a wonderful way.

Am happy to report more improvements to the X3D node + statement inventory spreadsheets:

Updates include addition of FreeWrl support, which has a whopping 97% coverage of the X3D Full Profile!

Some interesting statistics follow, also attached in updated snapshot image.

 From the FreeWRL home page:

==============================
http://freewrl.sourceforge.net

FreeWRL is an X3D/VRML open source viewer for Windows, Linux and Android.

FreeWRL has had a long track record, is here to stay. X3D Components get added, problems get resolved. Program with GLSL Shaders using the X3D Shaders Component, put your models exactly where you want them with the Geospatial Component, or just throw triangles to the screen as Extrusions, IndexedFaceSets, TriangleSets, Circle2D, Disk2D, Spheres, Boxes, Cubes; the list goes on and on.

With royalty free open standards, your models will continue to render, year after year.
==============================

What a tremendous effort and what an excellent high-water mark for everyone working with X3D.  Many thanks to Doug Sanden, John Stewart and the entire FreeWRL developer community.

all the best, Don
