Right.  I'll add those.

Directly in A3DL.  My thought was we can write an OTD that has the same 
parameterized fields that describe a SL primitive.  The client needs to 
be able to render that, of course.  Hugh Perkins has a library "fractal 
spline" which apparently can render SL prims that we can borrow.  Having 
this functionality would make it trivially easy to incorporate SL 
content into VOS.
