a56c6e18a8 Cycles:
* Disable precompiled cuda binaries, always do at run time
* Change preview samples default to 10
* Hide volume panels since they don't do anything yet

cfbd6cf154 Cycles:
* OpenCL now only uses GPU/Accelerator devices, it's only confusing if CPU
  device is used, easy to enable in the code for debugging.
* OpenCL kernel binaries are now cached for faster startup after the first
  time compiling.
* CUDA kernels can now be compiled and cached at runtime if the CUDA toolkit
  is installed. This means that even if the build does not have CUDA enabled,
  it's still possible to use it as long as you install the toolkit.

da376e0237 Cycles render engine, initial commit. This is the engine itself, blender modifications and build instructions will follow later.
Cycles uses code from some great open source projects, many thanks them:

* BVH building and traversal code from NVidia's "Understanding the Efficiency of Ray Traversal on GPUs":
http://code.google.com/p/understanding-the-efficiency-of-ray-traversal-on-gpus/
* Open Shading Language for a large part of the shading system:
http://code.google.com/p/openshadinglanguage/
* Blender for procedural textures and a few other nodes.
* Approximate Catmull Clark subdivision from NVidia Mesh tools:

* Sobol direction vectors from:
