Links

This page collects Web links to the pages of other projects, people, companies or other entities, that can be of interest to someone using (or contemplating using) Verse.

Uni-Verse is the EU Sixth Framework Programme that the Verse development is currently being funded by.
Blender is part of the Uni-Verse consortium as well, which is why this site is hosted here.
Purple is a Uni-Verse project to develop a plug-in-based computational engine based on the Verse data model.

Wiki

Uni-Verse:Main is the root page for our Wiki content, which focuses on documentation.

For Developers

These are links that are mostly of interest to people who intend to develop with Verse.

The verse-dev mailing list is recommended for all developers of applications using Verse. Once you're subscribed, please consider browsing through the archives.
Verse developers are invited to hang out on IRC, in the #verse channel on the freenode network.
Here is a collection of "Verse pitfalls", by Camilla Berglund. Recommended reading for all new Verse developers! If the server doesn't respond, there's a local copy here too.

There is a dedicated Verse forum on the Collada project's site.

Third-Party Links

These are links to Verse-related pages that are not directly a part of the "official" Verse project. These are typically things contributed by interested people, for which we are of course very grateful.

Here is the blog of Jiří Hnídek, who has been working on a Google summer of code project to integrate Verse into Blender. Also see his Blender wiki pages on the integration, and the user documentation for it.
Here is a page about Ruby bindings for Verse, created by Enrico Schwass.
Here are Mac OS X binaries of Verse, the Quelsolaar applications, and Jiří's Verse-enabled Blender, courtesy of Brian C. Hynds.
