[Verse-dev] Saving and Loading

[Eskil Steenberg]

Hi

Storing things like vertex count and and poly count and material count in
tags is inadvisable. The problem is that this information is derived form
data alreddy defined by the verse data set. If an application makes a
change to the data set thees values become invalid, and since data in
verse can change at any time this is not very robust. If you write a
application that require thees values to exist or be correct, you will run
in to all kinds of problems due to latency and your app will only work
with a data set especialy prepared. It is much better to compute the info
you need directly form the verse data.

Cheers
