Rafal,

If I were you, I wouldn't 'waste' any more words on this.  The licence 
is as it is. We all have to live with it as it is. It won't change 
tomorrow and it has a long history.

Anyway, you did the right thing, contacted the team and asked their 
permission. You didn't get the awnser you hoped for, so be it. Others 
probably do it differently, they steal the code and use it anyway. What 
do you prefer, To still be able to output POV-SDL from your application 
to render with POV-Ray, or being a thief?

Use your energie to write your application, not on "what could have been 
if ..."
