Sounds like courtesy is what was being talked about here. Regardless of what
the answer is one should not be rude in responding. On the other hand one
must understand the demands of software development.

I know, Thorsten, that you are a major part of PovRAY and PovRAY would be
hurt if you stopped your developing but it does not sound like you enjoy
what you are doing on PovRAY anymore. At least in how much time it requires.
Is there anyone else capable of taking up some of the development slack. As
big as the internet is I would thank someone could help. I know I do not
have the programming skills to contribute but I sure will continue to root
for those that do have.
