As soon as you can, I can give it a good workout. It's just been ages since I've
gone to Windows at home.

That means, then, it is a bug in the Windows version and not the core.  When
I tried it under Windows, it didn't even try.  Of course, I'm not planning
on rendering an image that large, but I do render 16000 x 12000 images, and
that fails too.  If I turn of the display, it works fine, though.  I'll just
have to remember to do that for the time being.  What would be nice is that
if the render window fails, WINPOV automagically shuts off the render
display.

  Does this mean "linux binaries" or "generic unix source"?

For the beta, I guess it will be binaries. If only to
successfully implement the beta expiration date.

Linux binaries, for the same reason Windows source isn't available yet.

	if you give us sources, we can give you patches.

I say I guess. I'm not part of the team. I agree with you,
and perhaps things will change in the (far) future, for
POV-Ray 4.0.

On the other hand, "If you give us sources, we can remove
the one-month time limit and ship it with RedHat 7.3."

  Why those who don't use Windows, Mac nor Linux have always to wait longest?

  (Rethorical question, no need to answer.)

Smaller user-base? Particularily relevant to beta-testing?

Too late...

The answer might not be what you expect: as far as I know, the answer is
that nobody on the Team has access to any machines named after nearby stars.
