[Radiance-general] Bit-rot on RadSite

[Greg Ward]

OK -- took some work, but the whole thing squeezed down to a 1 MByte  
PDF, which is now linked in at:

	http://radsite.lbl.gov/radiance/papers/sg94.1/paper.html

(You may need to reload the page to clear your cache.)

The figures are still out of order, but I can't be bothered to fix that.

Cheers,
-Greg
