hey 2 weeks ago we chatted on irc on how to make three.js smaller and more extandable.

since then i gave it some thought and worked quit a bit on it. I got something which may be of interest. The principle is quite simple: to use jquery kindof api on top of three.js. i see 2 big advantages. 1) three.js doesnt have to be modified and 2) jquery got a very successfull plugin ecosystem, hopefully we could reproduce it.

So it would be possible to trim three.js and to put whatever is removed as plugin. Thus we could endup with a simple and eleguant core for three.js and a good plugin ecosystem on top. This ecosystem would allow developers to share their work and to build on top.

What do you think ?
