[Edu-sig] no Python 2.0 bindings for Lightflow until now ...

Well, I was thinking of adding some class(es) to my KineticsKit VPython toy
(http://stud4.tuwien.ac.at/~e9326522/KineticsKit/) to produce some *VERY*
high quality renderings. OpenGL is ok, and a neccessarity for realtime tasks
like interaction with the spring-mass-system, but there is certainly a
difference between an OpenGL scene and something Lightflow can produce
(http://www.lightflowtech.com/images/bspline2_b.jpg,

take a look at an MPEG made with a previous version of KineticsKit by
writing about 400 PovRay scene files:

and
http://stud4.tuwien.ac.at/~e9326522/schwing/11x11_relaxed_looseBorder.mpeg
are also a bit interesting and nice to watch.

Enjoy, Markus
