Hi everyone,

Returning to this thread a week later.  Suoqing has updated a few of
the cameras, and I've written a bunch of documentation.  A few of us
have also tested out some of the new capabilities, and while they
aren't without some flaws, I think they're pretty darn solid at this
point.  I broke one of Suoqing's open PRs to Sam's repo, which I
intend to fix, but I think that at least from a documentation
perspective this PR is ready to review:

https://bitbucket.org/yt_analysis/yt/pull-request/1256/wip-volume-rendering-refactor

Comments on documentation would be extremely appreciated.

Thanks,

Matt
