Well, we can support several versions as I understand there are
currently two main versions of PovRay, PovRay 3.1 and Patched or
MegaovRay.
Concerning I/O, actually we work as this: if you want to submit a task
(of an application in general) you give a file which is the stdin file,
a zip file which is a compressed directory containing all the files
requested for the execution of the task, and the command line.
The worker (remote PC) unzips the dir, jumps into, execute the command
line, inject the stdin file. So you see that's it is quite simple and ad
hoc. Right now we don't support some kind of "throttle" mecanism for
limiting bandwith, or size of
the genrated files.

No, we have Jacques Pierre Paul etc...
