Additional Comments 30 October 2025

My name is Jamis Buck.
My wife and I are currently attending Brigham Young University in Provo UT--she's studying TESOL in a graduate program, and I'm in CS (go figure).

I'm currently employed by a consulting firm and we are working on a project for the university, which makes it all quite convenient.

I've been POVing (to coin a phrase) for a couple years now, but lately I think I've found my calling in "tinkering" with the POV code. :)
Twyst and I cooperatively compiled and released the TMPov patch for 3.02, which was a lot of fun.

In my spare time (what little I have) I like to program and read (mainly sci-fi and fantasy, the CS enthusiast's staples).

Incidentally, I'm also seriously considering writing a ray-tracer with renderman support (something free-ware), so if anyone out there has a fair bit of C experience and would be interested in such a project, drop me a line!
