Original-subject: Ray Tracing FTP site list, & Radiosity Bibliography
Reposted-by: emv@math.lsa.umich.edu (Edward Vielmetti)

Here's my latest FTP list for ray tracing related materials.  These sites also
have a large amount of material that is of interest to the graphics community
(no GIF sites, though).  Don't forget:  the netiquette of FTPing is that you
don't grab hunks of data from a site during its work hours.  I haven't checked
many of these sites lately, so let me know of any updates, new sites, etc.

I should also note that "freedom" now has the latest radiosity bibliography
available, and I should be updating the ray tracing bibliography soon.
