Well, obviously the POV sources are available, as are the sources for DKB
trace, Polyray, and Rayshade to name a few others. All of them are easily
turned up with a quick search at your nearest engine.

If you're looking for in-depth online information on ray-tracing algorithms
and the like, forget it. There's plenty of source, but if you want docs, buy
a textbook.

Good luck.
