Pixar Animation Studios today released its Academy Award-winning RenderMan software for non-commercial use. Free (as in beer) Non-Commercial RenderMan can be used for research, education, evaluation, plug-in development, and any personal projects that do not generate commercial profits. It is fully featured, without watermark, time limits, or other user limitations. The EULA is here.
RenderMan is compatible with the following 64-bit operating systems: Mac OS 10.9, 10.8 and 10.7, Windows 8 and 7, and Linux glibc 2.12 or higher and gcc 4.4.5 and higher. RenderMan is compatible with versions 2013.5, 2014, and 2015 of Autodesk’s Maya, and with versions 1.5, 1.6, and 2.0 of The Foundry’s KATANA. Registration is required before download.

I was impressed by Renderman when I first encountered it decades ago, but without access to a relevant system I had to settle for reading the manual and learning from it.
May I regret that it is now only free as in beer, not libre?
