I'm sorry to tell you all that I just discovered that George Pantazopoulos
died last year, at age 29.
During 2007 I did raytrace very little, and didn't use XRS at all, but
recently I started again to use it. Trying to get the latest version, I
found that George site, gammaburst.net, was gone. So I decided to google a
bit to see if he was hanging around on other sites... unfortunately, one of
the first search results was this one:
http://weblab.cs.uml.edu/pipermail/msgs/2007-May/001566.html
I can only but agree with what Kate Tsui says about him: he was a very nice
person, always ready to help me with whatever problem I had with his
wonderful XRS patch, and seems this was his usual attitude with everyone...
It's too late now, but anyhow I want to correspond him by offering my help
to anyone who has problems compiling or running XRS, that is, doing the same
he did for me.

I never had the chance to meet George for real, and though I only exchanged
with him a (much too small) bunch of mails, I believe he must have been a nice soul...
gone too soon.
Thanks for what you brought to the POV community, George.

Render In Peace, George.

I found this archive of his XRS page.

The download links for the XRS server, client and libiqxmlrpc dependency work :

Many thanks, but that one seems corrupted. Anyone out there who still has
the original package? I've it installed, but it would be nice to have the
original package for clean installations in other machines.
Regards,
