Is anyone working on enhancing the povray raytrace engine to allow for real
bounced light. Light that when it strikes an objects bounces off to go on
and illuminate other objects. I know radiosity is a way of achieving this
look but it seems rather week. I have been trying to create scenes where the
light is outside of a structure but the image is inside. Like a cave. Or a
room with the sun high in the sky. If this is possible already how? and to
what quality.

I have looked at a large number of rendering engines and I find this ability
only in high priced products and even then it if faked with lighting tricks.

I am not too worried about speed either.

Thanks very much for all of you very hard working programmers.
