In the interest of getting rid of the banner at the top of the page, I'll introduce myself here.
I'm a mechanical engineering student (graduating with a BS this spring), and I work in our theatre as a TA, doing set construction and sound+electrics work. I've finally found the time to take a lighting design class this semester, and am currently working on light design for student dance pieces.
If you know Soundlight here, I've been working with him for the last 3 years.
My reason for joining is that I'm currently developing a set of functions for the raytracing program POV-Ray that will allow me to simulate most of the commercially available lighting instruments. I am well aware that WYSIWYG does this, and better, but I'm doing it for my own programming education and will be releasing it for free under the CC-BY-NC license.
