Dear all,

 I've seen some description about the NetRay, TCP/IP protocol Microsoft
NT-based  distributed POVray program. Is the NetRay also available for
Windows98 ?

That is a product that Mikael Carneholm is working on but has not yet made
available to the public. It seems to have been in stasis for some time now
and I have not heard if he ever plans on finishing it. If you want I can
probably dig up his email address for you so you can discuss it further
with him.

BTW, is the IMP-Pov similar  to this NetRay (in case this NetRay is fully
developed)? I just saw your comment about the 'Rendering in a network' thread.

Thanks,

It is similar but it is currently not avialable to the general public.
I am working on removing this restriction but have not heard back from
the people in charge of that web site yet.

Just to emphasize what's already in my .sig, I'm speaking for myself only here, 
but is that a violation of this clause in POVLEGAL, or is this a separate 
program that just invokes a separate copy of POV-Ray on each client machine?

 Custom versions may only be distributed as freeware. You must make all of your 
 modifications to POV-Ray freely and publicly available with FULL SOURCE CODE 
 to the modified portions of POV-Ray and must freely distribute full source to 
 any new parts of the custom version.

As far as I know it is a complete custom compile of the program that has
added functionality. How and what it does can be answered by Nigel Stewart
who worked on most of it's implementation.

It is only unavailable to the general public because it is stored on a
password protected server - the IMP home page is for members only. Other
than that it was created under full compliance of POV-Legal. There is
no cost to download the program but to get access to it you have to join
the IMP so as to get access to the private pages.

I see no conflict here.

No conflict between "publicly available" and "available only to IMP
members"?  I'm not sure I concur.

I guess it's time to ask Chris Cason for a clarification then...
