I was able to fake something for it by adding spotlights directed on that
polygon, that got rid of most of the shadow, but I'm not pretty proud about
it...  I needed this for tonight and now it's gone...  But for my personnal
knowledge and for next time, I wonder how I could do it with only the Official
Povray!

no_shadow controls the Casting of shadow, if I set all the other polygons to
no_shadow, then there is indeed no shadow on my central polygon, but there is
also no shadow on the smaller polygons all around...  Adding no_shadow to my
central polygon only stops the cast of its shadow on the other polygons (but
there is still the shadow of the other polygons on it...)

Thanks,
  Simon
