"Moving"? Just to allay fears, we are *adding* a C++ API
(which is our underlying language) in Performer 2.0. We
have no plans to abandon our C API or leave it less
functional than our C++ API.

I apologize to everyone for the delay in getting the
completed Inventor loader out door. There are still some
optimzations to be done to it. Sometimes we may be too
picky about performance, but it is our obsession.
