Hi!

I would like to make PovRay faster ( and did it also, see 3D!Now ) and I
read the discussion about PovRay and OpenGL. So I thought about the
possibility to make PovRay with different methods of rendering. One would be
the normal, using double precision, precise & slow, the other would be the
fast, using single precision, not so precise but fast. Beause of that reason
I would like to make all necessary C files. They would contain all vector,
matricies and color calculations ( crosproduct, scale, add, sub, div, mul,
invers, linearcombination, square root, sin, cos, tan, exp, spuare etc.; all
of the function/macros which are in colour.c/h, matricies.c/h and vector.c/h
+ some additional functions/macros). But first I want to talk with the
PovRay team so this could be in the official PovRay. So how can I contact
them?
