It certainly wouldn't be closed off. It would simply be setup with "generator" engines. -xslt -python -C++ library Each would implement a "generator engine" abstract class so they can be swapped. Then each engine would decide how to execute the specified script or C++ library.The engines only ta

Work so far on my part of the 3D refactor has resulted in the development of a dynamic plugin scheme which has been shown to work on Linux, OSX, and MSWin. Although no plugins are currently implemented which provide an actual useful function I think the improvements provided by the 3D model filenam
