A couple of days ago A. Akin (akin@sgi.com) posted a nice 10 page
comparison between PEX 5.1 and OpenGL 1.0 on comp.sys.sgi. Although
the main focus of this comparison is on technical differences, other
issues were also addressed.

I was/am wondering :

  1. Does such a report exist for Explorer vs AVS ?

  2. If so, is this available somewhere ? (There must be someone
     out there who has done some type of comparison between the
     two environments ...)

  3. If not, I would like to form a small group (+/- 5) to make
     a detailed technical comparison between the two. I have some
     (biased) ideas on the issues that should be addressed, but don't
     know enough about AVS to make a fair comparison.

     I believe that such a paper will be worth the effort, not only
     for the readers but for the writers as well. I'm willing to gather
     contributions and do the editing.

     So, if anyone is interested in working on this paper, or have any
     pointers, please mail me.
