1 | Extantz is the main virtual world front end. Also, during this | ||
2 | experimental phase of development, this will be a test bed for all the | ||
3 | GUI stuff. Eventually lots of it will be split off to separate | ||
4 | programs. | ||
5 | |||
6 | Extantz is a made up word. The challenge was to find a word beginning | ||
7 | with E, is as traditional with EFL (Enlightenment Foundation Library) | ||
8 | projects, that has not been done to death, and thus has some reasonable | ||
9 | chance to turn up in google searches. It also helps if it somehow or | ||
10 | other reflects what the project actually is. lol | ||
11 | |||
12 | Extant means "still existing, surviving", or the more archaic meaning, | ||
13 | from it's original Latin roots "standing out, be visible, exist". | ||
14 | |||
15 | Extent means "an area or volume, the range over which a thing extends" | ||
16 | among other things. | ||
17 | |||
18 | So I hope to invoke thoughts of a volume that exists and stands out. In | ||
19 | other words, virtual worlds. Meh, I'm not that artsy, it needed a name. | ||
20 | lol | ||
21 | |||
22 | Extantz will handle all the 3D rendering. The other parts can use nails | ||
23 | to control the world that is rendered, and GuiLua to present their UI | ||
24 | on top of the rendered world. | ||
