Here's one: http://virtual-worlds-research.com/demonstrations/wsc/ and here's another one I'm still building: http://projectsvr.virtual-worlds-research.com/la/ (this is just an initial part of quite a large project, is at an early stag= e, is fairly ugly to look at, and isn't of general interest, but I'm noneth= eless quite proud of it). > Curious how well ada handles maintenance and evolution? > The template system is nice, so you can make rapid changes layouts, etc..

I choose AWS mainly because I'm constructing front-ends to quite large numb= er-crunching applications that are themselves written in Ada and there are = advantages in having the front-end and back-end (the model and the view, I = suppose) in the same language. Plus, AWS is just a good thing, well written= with a very nice community surrounding it. Graham
