RE: XML for 3D geometry and objects

Could someone enlighten us -- or at least me -- on VML/SVG and what is *so*
revolutionary about them?  I seen some amazing things done with VRML, but
the VML demos (that I've seen) just don't compare?  Is there a difference?

Maybe - Microsoft have standardized on (and deployed in Office2000) VML.  So
now we have VML versus SVG.  SVG won't revolutionise anything while 90% of
application users are running VML.

I'm not qualified to take sides, but I don't think we need both.
