My friend Pradeek has done a Simple3D library. Here is a small description from him.
“
Simple3D is a Actionscript 3 library which contains standalone classes for creating 3D content with Flash Player 10. The reason I wrote this was because I am still learning about 3D development and such a library could be useful for beginners. For example, in Papervision, you have to set-up a Viewport, a Scene, a Camera and a Renderer and then add an object in the scene, add the scene to the viewport and then render it. In Simple3D, it is fairly straight forward. You create an object, add it in the display list using addChild(), and call the object’s render method.
For eg :
var cube:Cube = new Cube();
addChild(cube);
and call cube.render() in the ENTER_FRAME event if you want it to continuously render. Rotation is also added. Rotate in X,Y,Z axes using the rotationX.rotationY and rotationZ properties and in all 3 axes using cube.rotate(value); method.
This same code applies to all 5 primitives. You can specify the properties of the object (eg: Radius for sphere, height of cylinder, etc) in the constructor.
As for textures on the primitives, that is the last argument in the constructor for all the classes (as a BitmapData object)
An example is here. http://tinyurl.com/nuwr2k
I have created a wiki page as well. http://code.google.com/p/simpl3d/wiki/Introduction
I have also given an example for the ASE parser in the zip file in Google Code page.

MSN has renamed its service MSN search as Bing- Bing is a search engine that finds and organizes the answers you need so you can make faster, more informed decisions. Bing has themes, country based searching etc.. MSN said Bing index more and more now and it is a “decision engine”. I also found Webmaster section similar to google’s one. Its seems like MS is copying the great G.
