<DIV>>is there something else in the standard, that can be used for multiuser mode (besides SAI/EAI)?<BR></DIV>
<DIV>To the best of my knowledge no -not as a standard per se.</DIV>
<DIV>However some people have done interesting MU stuff with php:</DIV>

<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Paul Aslin has something similar as well -it may be the 3dchat link.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>As far as MU goes, SAI/EAI holds the most promise for low cost </DIV>
<DIV>(i.e. Free as in free client AND server)</DIV>

<P>Supported from the beginning of the project. Multi-user-mode with <EVENTSTREAMSENSOR>and BS Collaborate definitively possible.</P>
<H2 class=western>Octaga</H2>
<P>Supported from spring 2009 onwards. Multi-user-mode with <NETWORKSENSOR>theoretically possible, but no free test version of collaboration server available -> multi-user-mode cannot be supported currently.</P>
<H2 class=western>Instant Reality</H2>
<P>First trials positive. Yet unknown, whether Network Sensor node is supported or not. According to X3D-public mailing list an open source multi-user-framework exists (to be analysed).</P>
<H2 class=western>Free WRL</H2>
<P>First trials show, that <EXTERNPROTODECLARE>is not supported <FONT face="Times New Roman, serif">→</FONT> postponed.</P>
<H2 class=western>Xj3D</H2>
<P>First trials show, that Xj3D has problems with nested prototypes <FONT face="Times New Roman, serif">→</FONT> postponed.</P>
<H2 class=western>Vivaty</H2>
<P>Not available AFAIK</P>
<H2 class=western>SwirlX3D</H2>
<P>First trials not un-positive, but show up problems with viewpoints in prototypes, proximity sensors in prototypes etc. <FONT face="Times New Roman, serif">→</FONT> postponed</P>
