[Papervision3D] - SWC isnt the last version?

[John Lindquist]

.swcs are especially handy when you have multiple developers on a single
projects. You just drop your .swc libraries into a "libs" folder and you can
all easily share/version control whatever libraries you're working with.
This method locks down the revision # of each of the libraries (the beauty
of open-source is that libraries are always changing for the better) and
then it makes it easy to turn over your final project to the next guy who
will work on it.

That being said, having the code locked away inaccessible in a .swc can
sometimes get annoying :) On the other hand, it kills the temptation of
directly modifying code in external libraries by forcing you to
extend/override yourself.
