I believe Thomas has rights to reproduce and distribute those tuits now. As for
the caching and the to-do list, I understand on both points.
Not sure if you've ever seen this, but I was reading recently about Renderman's
subsurface features, based on the same SSLT paper that you used. They bake the
subsurface data into a brick map (which sounds very much like a DF3 to me) that
can be recursively refined; pretty cool:
