- Since more than one asked me for details and references, I can tell that
- the thesis is in italian, and that there is an article, again in italian,
- he wrote for a computer magazine, describing his work.
- If anyone reads italian... let me know.
- In the meantime, I'll try to track him down to ask if he has anything about
- it in english, and if he's available for further discussion on the topic (maybe
- for sci.virtual-worlds.apps!)
