#   Thanks to Emilio Aguirre for S2flender from which I took inspirations :)
#   Thanks to Nikola Radovanovic, the author of the original VRM script,

#       from scratch but Nikola gave me the idea, so I thank him publicly.
#
# ---------------------------------------------------------------------
# 
# Things TODO for a next release:
#   - FIX the issue with negative scales in object tranformations!
#   - Use a better depth sorting algorithm
#   - Implement clipping of primitives and do handle object intersections.
#     (for now only clipping away whole objects is supported).
#   - Review how selections are made (this script uses selection states of
#     primitives to represent visibility infos)
#   - Use a data structure other than Mesh to represent the 2D image? 
#     Think to a way to merge (adjacent) polygons that have the same color.
#     Or a way to use paths for silhouettes and contours.
#   - Consider SMIL for animation handling instead of ECMA Script? (Firefox do
#     not support SMIL for animations)
#   - Switch to the Mesh structure, should be considerably faster
#     (partially done, but with Mesh we cannot sort faces, yet)
#   - Implement Edge Styles (silhouettes, contours, etc.) (partially done).
#   - Implement Shading Styles? (partially done, to make more flexible).
#   - Add Vector Writers other than SVG.
#   - Check memory use!!
#   - Support Indexed palettes!! (Useful for ILDA FILES, for example,
#     see http://www.linux-laser.org/download/autotrace/ilda-output.patch)

#
# Changelog:
#
#   vrm-0.3.py  - ...
#     * First release after code restucturing.
#       Now the script offers a useful set of functionalities
#       and it can render animations, too.
#     * Optimization in Renderer.doEdgeStyle(), build a topology cache
#       so to speed up the lookup of adjacent faces of an edge.
#       Thanks ideasman42.
#     * The SVG output is now SVG 1.0 valid.
#       Checked with: http://jiggles.w3.org/svgvalidator/ValidatorURI.html
#     * Progress indicator during HSR.
