In section   6.11.11.2.10  minimum_reuse  , the third sentence reads:

    "For example, if the value is 0.02 the radius of maximum reuse for every
sample is set to whatever ground distance corresponds to 2% of the width of
the screen. "

An added comma after "0.02" clarifies the sentence significantly.

"For example, if the value is 0.02, the radius of maximum reuse for every
sample is set to whatever ground distance corresponds to 2% of the width of
the screen. "

I wasn't going to mention this because it seemed insignificant, but in
section 8.2.3, it says:

"Contributors of POV-Ray patches that version 3.5 is based on"

It should be:

"Contributors of POV-Ray patches on which version 3.5 is based"

btw, the rule that one shouldn't end one's sentences with prepositions is
commonly ignored in all sorts of places besides POV docs. It's a pretty
minor error in my opinion.
