I don't want to throw cold water on this idea, but there's gotta be enough 
sites hosting 3D models already - a google search on "free 3d models" 
returns 157,000 pages!  Do we plan on just adding one more URL to that 
crowd, or are we going to be PLIB/PPE specific?

Well, my specific need at the moment is a place to store a hundred-odd 
little VRML files to test my loader.  These will be unnecessary to anybody 
else who just wants to use the loader, but they might be of academic 
interest for people who want to use PLIB for VRML-specific things.
