Dave,

I'd certainly offer it up for potential inclusion in plib/ssg, but the
decision would be up to Steve.  My interests are more simulation
oriented rather than game oriented.  I've been considering putting
together my own package of things that would sit a level up from plib,
or be out of the scope of plib ... things like a drop in sky, terrain
rendering/paging tools, or even a collection of vehicle dynamics
codes.

I'm thinking it would be nice to have plib + my_package = getting your
simulation project off the ground quickly.

Regards,

Curt.
