gosh I am so old :) sic!

Can you refer released patches to povray source code? Other contributions to its
development?

That's not a war. That's about guidelines of contributing, thought I do not
represent anybody in my opinions but I feel part of community.

Can you refer in what post you asked if somebody need your fixes ? I remember:
"Your problems are not my problems, I can live with it how POV is working."

Did you decided to release patch before hearing our arguments?

Do you work only when enthusiasm is showed??? Do you have internal opinion that
you think correct way? Then patch it and release. Simple.

Moreover hard to expect much enthusiasm if I can count no more 5 person who
understand radiosity source code. Artists will appreciate your work _after_
releasing working, well documented patch.
