I haven't seen Blobman on the 'net recently.  Which is strange since the 
petibonum tool came out not that long ago.

I've been trying to get blobman to walk for the up-coming animation 
contest.  Some success, but not enough to submit.  Have to get on with 
the rest of it, but if there's time I'll try to get it working (and will 
post it.)

Question - Blobman is pretty slow parsing.  Are Poser meshes any better? 
  And has anyone animated a poser figure?
