Most definitely NOT for the next event... i'm still working on a way to handle our
text translations for e.g. the press releases easier than by e-mail.
Problem with adding/replacing QTVR is a) storage space, b) handling the user's
decision which viewer to user (cookies + javascript - or provide a "clone" of the
whole site with the panorama object/embed calls replaced?), c) "friction loss" of
earlier event's contents, e.g. panoramas with export disabled, object movies,
cylindricals?
Basically, the whole trouble usually associated with adding/switching from one
viewer platform to another...
