Looks good, a bit too stiff though.

If you're going to do more images like this, you might add fading to
your light, so we don't have to see that floor pattern extending to
infinity. ^^;

Excellent piece of work. I hope you will publish the finished result.

	Not yet. I've got an idea how to implement it in a reasonably fast way,
but since I probably won't need it for my irtc entry, I'll wait a little
before adding other features (such as a user interface, other object
types and self collision)

	Most of my tests tool 10-20mn to compute, but increasing the time
increases faster thant the resolution...

	I'll probably publish something next week (core simulation engine, need
to edit the source and recompile each time you want to change any
parameter). I'll get back to it and make it more usable once I've
finished my irtc entry

Will this thingy be open-source, so some other clever person can improve on
it later?

The Provot papers deal with self-colision as well. If you don't have them, I
can e-mail them to you.

	Yes please, I'd be very interested to see how others have tackled the
problem.

	Yes, it'll almost certainly be GPLed.
