[ODE] standard file format for architecture descriptions?

[Anders Backman]

another attempt is osgVortex
http://binky.cs.umu.se/vrlab/projects/osgVortex based on OpenSceneGraph
and Vortex though...

I think that specifying the structure is not that hard. Its harder to
specify actors, events and other information only available at runtime.

Cheers,
Anders.
