I thought about mandating one specific program but then I realized that this may
limit the submissions from those who are unwilling/unable to install the
specified program on their machine. This is why I liked Larry's idea to submit
the DAT code instead and to have the contest coordinator do the renders. This
way, if the contest coordinator wanted to render all the submissions in full
radiosity with LGEO and LUGNET's color includes, it would be allowed. I want
uniformity of look not restiction to one specific program.
I also think it would be neat if each month's contest showcased a different
rendering program.
