Re: [Gnu3dkit-dev] Optimization suggestion

[Philippe C . D . Robert]

Hi,

this is done by the G3DLODGroup class. Please have a look at it, there 
is still plenty to do in this respect!

Sorry for still not uploading the latest sources to the CVS, I really 
try to bring the sources in a shape which is somehow clean, but 
currently I do have very little spare time. Please base your work on 
0.3 then, it will not be too hard to incorporate it into 0.4 later!

-Phil

PS: If you do not care about having a tree which does *not* work then I 
could upload it today or tomorrow. Let me know!
