Thankyou all for doing this, and congratulations on a remarkable 
outcome.  Povers, given the chance, (and with a little coaxing,) have 
done themselves proud! I sense that this is going to spur even more 
innovation with POV-Ray's capabilities.

Congratulations to Johnny.  His image really embodies the expressiveness 
of this new art form of raytracing, and much of the flavour and spirit 
that POV-Ray and the POV-Ray community brings to it.
