[x3d-public] [x3d] X3D Working Group agenda 12 October 2018

Note, I’ve done a WebVOWL visualization of X3D with VOWL after converting
the X3D XML schema to OWL.  I can send you a video link if you are
interested. With the right tools, it’s a few hours work, if you want to get
a slowish visualization working.
