Okay, now that's great! I'm away for a little over a month and what do I find? A bone yard, artistically decorated with some promises of a (future!) silver lining...
To those who, back then, accused me of being a cynic when I said I didn't believe that a Poser-compatible Lux code fork was viable - That was exactly what I was talking about. I've lead enough projects to know that, missing a consequent carrot (and a heavy stick), this project wouldn't survive very long. I didn't expect that it would end that quickly though. :-(
(Note I don't accuse the three guys who worked on it, I'm pretty sure I wouldn't had done any better, but at least I would have refrained from promising the world to people naive enough to take me at my word... There is always a huge contrast between what one can do, and what one is willing to do, especially for free.)
In the meantime, it remains that Poser to Lux conversion for the masses will remain a daydream... Maybe the $80 price tag on Reality isn't that exaggerated after all.
