A Java 3D 1.4 development branch, <code>dev-1_4</code>, -is also available in the CVS repository. For a -description of the CVS tags used in this project, please refer to <a - href="https://java3d.dev.java.net/cvs-tags.html">"Using CVS Tags in -Java 3D Projects"</a>.

The JavaSound -AudioEngine, which is not fully functional, is now the only available -AudioDevice. It is disabled by default.<br> - </li> - <li>Many bug fixes have been incorporated<br> - </li> -</ol> -<p>The reason the Headspace AudioEngine was removed is that we do not -have -the rights to ship the source code for the native Headspace sound -mixer. Our plan -going forward is to enourage the development community to implement an -AudioEngine using <a href="https://joal.dev.java.net/">JOAL</a>.</p> -<p><span style="font-weight: bold;">Java 3D 1.4, 1.5, ...</span><br> -</p> -<p>A description of the set of <a href="j3d1_4/proposed-changes.html">proposed -Java 3D API changes</a> for 1.4 (and beyond) is now available. The -main focus of the proposed -1.4 release is the addition of <a href="j3d1_4/shaders.html">programmable -shaders</a>. Our goal is to -minimize large scale changes to the system in order to deliver 1.4 as -quickly as possible. We encourage members of the development community -to review this proposed set of changes and provide feedback. We also -hope that community members will help us design and implement the 1.4 -version of the Java 3D API.<br> -</p> -<p>Once the majority of the API changes are decided upon for -Java 3D 1.4, we will file -a new JSR (or revive the existing <a - href="http://jcp.org/en/jsr/detail?id=189" target="_blank">JSR-189</a>) -under the Java -Community Process (JCP).
