Build with compiler flag: -DDTnativeDTrmx_native=DTdouble to get back higher precision representation. + +Taoning Wang updated genssky and gensdaymtx to provide illuminance +calibration and accept EPW files directly as input. + +Added -e expr and -f file.cal options to all rendering tools, not +just rcontrib/rxcontrib. Feature request from Peter A-B. + +Fixed slight bias in indirect calculation caused by ambient +collision detection, pointed out by Jon Sargent. New code +keeps track of rejected samples and sells them back to +later calls to get something closer to a true Poisson +sampling method. + +Altered rvu "origin" command to take shift amounts forward, +right, and up rather than taking an explicit origin, which +can be done easily enough with the "view" command. Peter A-B +requested (sort of). + +Added genglaze tool created by Taoning Wang to generate +spectral glazing materials based on CGDB data and models. + +Fixed bug that caused inf and nan errors with -cw setting +where longer wavelength was substantially less than limits +of specified spectra. + +Created bsdfpeaks utility to identify and report full-width, +half-maximum sizes of peaks in SIR and XML inputs. + +Changed default super-sampling in bsdf2ttree from 256 to 64, +since there doesn't seem to be much benefit to the higher +sampling rate for most BSDFs.
