Yes, agreed. Hopefully someone is working on security on the net. Again,
I'd rather stick to the 3D and adopt whatever standard emerges for security.

If someone wants to do a neat CGI hack for 3D mazes ... go for it. I don't
think this needs standardizing at this point.

Anyway -- anyone know where/how/who/when the security discussions are happening?
