Well, I thought it was common knowledge. It's been the official logo for
quite some time now...

On its way...

When you do the recap of the POV-Ray 3.5 status page, you say that it was 
written and released on 1 September 2001, but I seem to remember it being
posted last year, also that date hasn't happened yet:-)

Nice review (though I havn't read it all yet), and thanks for the updated 
feature list it was something I found particularly interesting. 

How about a version that's all on one page so that we can d/l the whole 
review at once, here in Europe we pay for our time online.

It is 99.951% ready for beta release. Just working on a few last minute
changes to the scene files and docs because of a last minute change to
the feature list. Tick, tick, tick, tick, tick....

Oopsie. A little slip. I triple-checked though. Darn... :) Rick has been
notified.

You're welcome. I'm glad you liked it.

I doubt Rick will do that. Sorry. :(

Perhaps once the article's system is database then I could do that, but not
as it stands - its more work for me to combine it all into one doc than it
would be for you to save each page :)

Who has the rights of the article - Tony[B] or povray.co.uk ?

If it's ok I could combine the article into one and upload it temporarily to
my website space.

Of course I take that back if the beta comes out before I get a chance to do
it, which is not that unlikely...

Well... I wrote it, but Rick did do a lot of work to get it up and present
it, so in a way, what you see online belongs to both of us, but more to me,
of course.

Fine by me. Rick?

Wow, these examples are fascinating!  I didn't hear about some of these
features before.  Facets should look good on things like stairway
railings.  I plan to use these for my pov museum.

I'm glad you like them! I and my contributors worked very hard on them. :)

I'm especially glad the article was informative.
