Well, it appears to me that, snide comments aside, you followed the
procedure outlined on the POV-Ray Web site, so I don't know what
all the fuss is about.

Distribution license section 4.1(c):

"POV may, in response to a request, by notice in writing and in
its absolute discretion, permit such bundling on a case by case basis."

This indicates that you must ask for the license by written
request. However, Section 13.4 says:

"The following postal address is only for official license business.
Please note that it is preferred that initial queries about
licensing be made via email; postal mail should only be used
when email is not possible, or when written documents are being
exchanged by prior arrangement."

Further, Section 13.1 says:

"License inquiries can be made via email; please use the following
address (but see 13.2 below prior to emailing) :

         team-coord-[three-letter month]-[four-digit year]@povray org."

If you emailed your initial inquiry to this address, then you did what
you were supposed to do (at least it seems that is what the document
says).

Disclaimer: I do not speak for anyone on the POV-Team nor
for the Team itself, just for myself.
