This wasn't regarded as offence, but as i said we all know about the 
techniques that exist to approach the global illumination problem. 
Therefore mentioning some nice sounding names does not lead to much.

As also said if you'd come up with some practical examples (i.e. 
demonstrating usability and efficiency) of global illumination 
techniques in comparison with POV-Ray's current system that would be 
great.  But you should take care this is a valid comparison (i.e. no 
mesh only scene compared to a complex CSG in POV-Ray) and giving render 
times is essential of course.  Gilles made such a comparison for C4D 
some time ago (the result was that the techniques seem very similar in 
results although there are also differences).
