I see. Well, we could add the base ruleset used to the scene specification,
but I agree with you that the rules belong to the objects, not the renderer
or kpovmodeler.
It would be just a way to make it easier for a user to use the application
with a specific renderer that doesn't support the rules specified for
povray.

If you search for kpovmodeler in the site it will show you where the article
is, however, you can't access the full article as it is for subscribers of
the magazine only.

This is the text I can see:

"Di Daniele Medri madrid @ linuxmeeting.net Se amate il raytracing, allora
amate strumenti come Pov-Ray - www.povray.org e se vi interessa
quest'ultimo, non potete esimervi dal provare Kpovmodeler -
www.kpovmodeler.org, un'applicazione che si interfaccia al noto engine
precedentemente citato e offre notevoli strumenti di gestione e possibilità.
Quando visiterete il sito indicato, e vi accingerete a scaricare il
software, non dubitate del numero di versione (al momento della stesura,
versione 0.2), perché lo strumento in questione è stato sviluppato nel corso
di vari anni e. oltre a garantire una notevole stabilità, offre la capacità
di gestire progetti 3D in maniera molto intuitiva. "

Which roughly translated (by a self-taught italian-reading portugese, so
forgive any mistakes as they are unintentional) should mean:

"From Daniele Medri madrid @ linuxmeeting.net If you love raytracing, then
you love applications like Pov-Ray - www.povray.org and if you're interested
in povray, you can't avoid trying Kpovmodeler - www.kpovmodeler.org, an
application that interfaces with the previously referred well-known engine
and offers considerable features and possibilities. When you visit the site
mentioned and manage to download the software, don't doubt of the version
number (at the moment of the writing, version 0.2), because the aplication
in question has been in development for several years and besides ensuring a
considerable stability, offers the possibility of managing 3d projects in a
very intuitive fashion."

Italian speaking folk, if you would please volunteer to translate this text
correctly to english so that we can post this on the site, I'm sure both
Andreas and me would be very grateful. As for the full article, we'll have
to wait for the next issue of inter.net to come out before we can read it or
link to it.

Luis
