i was looking at the affogato page...

http://affogato.sourceforge.net/index.php/Affogato:About

and wow does Moritz dislike XSI or what!?

"Affogato was mainly written by Moritz Mœller over a period of four months. During which namely person experienced the pain of the worst documented and mediocrely designed API south of the north pole. And I'm not talking about the RenderMan interface. Amen!"

it's sad because i would think softimage devs are happy that such cool stuff is being done with XSI, but by someone that loaths the core of the software

either way, affogato, XSIMan, etc are welcome!

RSP are releasing Affogato under the GPL - I think it's in SVN, but
haven't checked yet. You should see a packaged release soon enough
though. http://affogato.sf.net It's a really nice (and fast) exporter
and works particularly well with 3Delight (haven't tried it with other
renderman compliant renderers).

Cheers,
