I'm wondering where the name of Xith comes from ?
I have not found the answer to this question yet.

Does even someone still know ?

A little post of the origins of the name would interest me, and probably others too ; it would keep a trace, for records

Xith is a reference to the initial source of the API.  The magicosm project  http://magicosm.net/recruitment.htm

There were two projects "Dimensions of Xith" and "Magicosm" which merged July of 2000. We are a small team and this marks the first time any of us have built a game of this nature. David Yazel is the primary client programmer.....

David was the driving software force and created the basis of Xith3D, as I remember as they were nearing some initial releases when several commercial games came out that included or surpassed their designs and the team dissolved.

And do we now why the first project was called "Dimensions of Xith" ? I mean, how is the name "Xith" born ?
