Hi,
I scanned through the licenses and documents, but I couldn't figure out the
answer.  So I'm going to write a commercial web application that generates
images using Povray as its backend.  My part converts certain data into
scenes, and povray generates images from them.  Could you help me what
licensing conditions apply in this case?  The key points are if I can do
that, and if I shall pay for that.  And please, let me know if there are
any details I'm not aware of.
thanks, Adam

<http://www.povray.org/source-license.html> section 2.3 applies, unless your
software requires no modifications.

Thank you, Thorsten.

I'm just using povray calling its command line interface without any
modification.
