Hi!

I just thought if it might be possible to use XML to describe a scene. 
In my opinion, this would have a lot of advantages: Namespaces, ability 
to transform whole scenes using XSLT and the ability to retrieve data 
from POVXML-files and use them somewhere else.

It wouldn't pose AFAIK any problem to write a XSLT-script that would 
transform an XML-document to POVRay file format. Obviously this works 
only in one direction. It is, however some work to do so since all 
POVRay features would have to be mapped to XML.

I'd like to know if there is already such a system planned or implemented.
If not: Is anyone except me interested in implementing such a system?

What do you think about this idea?

Thanks in advance
Bernd Fuhrmann
