2. Active working-group meetings<br>
<br>
A lot is happening to adapt and use X3D4! Watch the x3d-public list for minutes and announcements:<br>
<br>
[2] Web3D Working Groups<br>
<a href="https://www.web3d.org/working-groups" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.web3d.org/working-groups</a><br>
<br>
a. Web3DUX meets (typically every other) Monday 1015-1100 pacific<br>
<br>
b. Semantic X3D discussion Tuesday, timing varies<br>
<br>
c. Communications team (members only) Wednesdays 8-9 pacific<br>
<br>
d. Audio implementation Wednesdays 1000 pacific<br>
<br>
e. CAD Design Printing Scanning (members only) Thursday 8-9 pacific<br>
<br>
f. X3D specification editors meet weekly, next topic is X3D SAI 19775-2 review.<br>
<br>
As discussed in Monday's Web3DUX meeting, comments improvements and incremental extensions to X3D4 remain possible during ISO balloting this year.<br>
<br>

3. Webinar planning<br>
<br>
Great suggestion by Nicholas - discuss potential webinars in coming months. Volunteers (and superstar requests) welcome.<br>
<br>
a. Audio. Efi Lakka is finalizing her full integration of Web Audio API in X3DOM, and is happy to lead a video webinar in March performing a code walkthrough.<br>
<br>
b. DIS Stream recording. Don Brutzman can share this week's presentation to SISO on recording DIS to create X3D Position/Orientation interpolators, aka “A Stream is a Stream”.<br>
<br>
[3] Repeatable Unit Testing of Distributed Interactive Simulation (DIS) Protocol Behavior Streams using Web Standards<br>
<a href="https://gitlab.nps.edu/Savage/NetworkedGraphicsMV3500/-/blob/master/conferences/SIW2021/BrutzmanBrennenstuhlOpenDIS7UnitTestingSiwFebruary2021Official.pdf" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://gitlab.nps.edu/Savage/NetworkedGraphicsMV3500/-/blob/master/conferences/SIW2021/BrutzmanBrennenstuhlOpenDIS7UnitTestingSiwFebruary2021Official.pdf</a><br>
<br>
c. Vince (and maybe Andreas) can demonstrate use of online tools (such as Glitch) for construction of 3D web pages.<br>
<br>
Let's think about how to present all past and upcoming webinars, on a webpage and Twitter too. Hoping that by creating a schedule it will encourage lots of good sessions.<br>
<br>

Have fun with X3D4! 8)<br>
<br>
all the best, Don<br>
