Sad news the Indigo Renderer is going commercial

Doh! I didn't see that coming, they emailed me the newsletter today.
They claim that there always will be a free version with watermarking
and limited resolution but at this time there is no linux version of
the v 2.0 renderer. I don't see the point of the hobbling they are
imposing on the free version (which will not have network rendering
built in) because one can always tile a bigger image with enough
overlap to remove the watermark.

Tim, it is an awesome render, you only need to see the results people
get with it, but now that they have pull the rug out from everyone is
it worth developing the plug-in further or is it better to search for
the best alternative in the FOSS realm? No v 2.0 on Linux is the bit
that has me concerned the most as the other issues with the free
version can be programed around quiet easily.
