[Darwin2k-devel] D2K 0.83

[Christopher L. <ch...@MI...>]

Hi --

I just saw this at Sourceforge and thought I would mail it to the
developers list so that the development email archives will show
activity for January '01 (and so that the other developers will see it
too):

Summary:0.83 released Version 0.83.0 includes automake/autoconf support,
the ability to save animations, and dlopen() support for dynamic
libraries. Get the latest version at
http://download.sourceforge.net/darwin2k

BTW: I'm another Chris L. from CMU (a.k.a.
und...@us... but that mail address isn't working yet),
and am interested in using D2K, especially the new dynamics core
libraries XRayJones is developing, for simulating rovers and free-flying
robots.  I just showed Chris' d2k demos to my lab group and a space
robotics researcher at NASDA (Japanese space agency) and they are all
impressed and interested.  I wrote autoconf/automake scripts for D2K,
and may write Gtk/libglade interfaces to some of the current programs in
Darwin2K to make it a little more portable (and consistant with the
GPL).

I know XRayJones is working on a new dynamics core for Darwin2K --- does
anyone else have specific development plans underway?

-Chris
