I cleaned up some more warnings this morning. The purify runs show the assembly problems.

Hey Bill-

I'm working on cleaning up the dashboard.

- I checked in some changes to the VRMLImporter to clean up memory leaks, 
warnings,
style, and remove global symbols.

- I'm going to go over to RPI this week and attack the picking on Unix systems

- It looks like the images for assembly and assembly2 are indeed correct now.

- There appears a weird problem in vtkAssembly causing sporadic core dumps 
when an
instance destructs. For example, I can get assembly.tcl to fail. It seems 
to be trying to
ReleaseGraphicsResources more than once?...I don't understand this because 
when
assembly destructs all it does is destroy its collections of props, each of 
which are in
turn destroyed due to refcount going to zero..I can't see where the problem 
is. I'll keep
poking around.

- As you know, I added the ability to draw clean edges. It seems that in 
meshEdges the
rendering of points on systems is very different, causing big differences 
in the image.
Also, some of your systems must be running OpenGL1.0. In meshEdges2.tcl I 
use the
polygon offset technique which is supported in OpenGL1.1 and above.

That's all for now,
Will
