Actually I think X3D makes things worse. :( It is more verbose than VRML

I thought that initially, but XML is just one of three possible encodings ... and it does have its advantages despite being more verbose.


I don't think VRML97 or the VRML Classic encoding for X3D is going to die any time soon. I prefer what I know. But XML is cool.

On the rest of your post, I can see where you're coming from but I have to disagree on some points. I do share your desire for the simple authorability that will attract new users and creators, however, I feel this is now becoming achievable with the tools we have at our disposal.

As I said, I am quite positive about X3D and the future.

I now just want to get on with it.
