Improvements:

With valuable feedback from Jaime Vives Piqueres, I fixed a bug in version
2.0.5 where radiosity data was lost in between rendering tiles. Now there
are far fewer tiling artifacts when doing radiosity scenes, and they can be
eliminated altogether using Jaime's two-pass technique (involves
precalculating rad data using a normal version of megapov first)

Issues:

There are still issues with library path order being worked out. Currently
the client does not put the scene dir first, which can lead to problems in
some situations. A solution is being worked out. While the user can edit
the pyxrsclient.py file (it's a python script with GUI), the next version
will make it easier to configure the paths.

Comments and feedback appreciated as always

George
