Any chance to look at the code for this?

Too much bleeding for me, and the intensity of the lights is a bit extreme.
Very interesting nonetheless. I recommend you check out:
http://www.3dluvr.com/marcosss/ There are some interesting radiosity tests
there. See "Cornell box with different lighting setups".

That spotlight with radiosity sure does have a drastic increase in render-time.
The radiosity renders are just too bright.  'brightness' turned up too much, or is
there
ambient used?

Damn, I'd forgotten just how pretty a decent radiosity rendering could 
be...

*very* nice.

Especially the candle lit scene w/radiosity.

Bye for now,
     Jamie.

The name 'Warp' has been appearing in the same sentence as radiosity
lately...

Good work on the radiosity scene. I personally like the color-bleeding, and
the spotlight image is the best one, IMO. You've gone and inspired me now, so
I've got to go have some fun playing with radiosity.

Did radiosity make such a drastic difference before MegaPOV?  Hmmm...

  Yes, I used a very high brightness setting for the images. Perhaps not
the most realistic result, but at least artistic.

  No, the render time increase was due to more accurate settings for that
image. At lower settings there were some visible artifacts.

  Yes, I used a very high brightness. Perhaps not very realistic, but at
least artistic.

  Yes. It's faster, better and easier to use.

I can't deny that. :)   Did you check out the link?

In the second radiosity image, I notice some strange lighting where the
spotlight object touches the ceiling. IMO there shoudn't be such a bright spot
there. Any idea what's causing it? (I haven't looked at the source yet)

  Yes: I have unrealistically bright radiosity settings. It makes objects
glow light by themselves (or more precisely, they reflect more light than
they receive).
  What you are seeing is just the white spotlight cylinder reflecting light
form the lit part of the scene. As I said, it reflects more than it receives,
so that is what is causing the effect.

  Btw, if I use realistic brightness in this image (ie. brigthness 1),
everything is nearly as dark as in the non-radiosity image.

This is from cornell.pov in the 3.5 beta. It works for this
type of scene :)

global_settings{
  assumed_gamma 1.0
  radiosity{
    pretrace_start 0.04
    pretrace_end 0.01
    count 200
    recursion_limit 3
    nearest_count 10
    error_bound 0.5
  }
}
