[This has been slightly corrected] Date: Fri, 10 Feb 1995 09:57:28 -0800 (PST) From: Len Wanger Subject: Announcement: Dore mailing list. Recently Kubota Graphics Corporation contributed the Dore' 3D graphics library to the public domain. I have started a new mailing list for Dore related issues. The list is called "dore", and has been installed on SDSC's automated listserver. The purpose of the list is to be a focal point for Dore community and to be a forum for Dore related questions, bug reports, patches, extensions, etc. To subscribe send email to: "listserv@sdsc.edu" With the command line: "ADD dore" For those who are unfamiliar with Dore, I have attached a brief description of the package. The package is commercial quality (having been a commercial product for several years) and has support for traditional polygonal rendering as well as ray tracing and radiosity.
