It sounds like it's a completely different kind of renderer, sharing 
most of the SDL, but using other rendering and lighting methods(like 
"real" radiosity, not Monte-Carlo raytracing like POV uses). They also 
don't seem to know that POV itself will be rewritten soon...

Since no POV source is involved, and it doesn't claim to be POV, I don't 
see why...
