I thought of that but I'm not trying to make a Radiance out of povray :)

And even though pov radiosity works with the Cornell box scene the minute
I tried to make an ordinary room there were some major errors in the rad
solution. The gurus haven't respondend yet in the "other" forum so I'm
assuming it's a feature. I have one earlier simple test scene where the
error is so big it took a while for me see it as an error. I was hoping
that particular scene was just extra tough but I guess not. As Beavis
would say: "Damn it! There is always someting."
