-added clock_t start_time; to frameset structure
-added int time_to_render; to frameset structure
-added unsigned int time_remaining; to blendjob structure
-added int avg_render_time; to blendjob structure

-added statement to frame_finder() function to add the start time of the frame to the frameset structure
-added statement to finish_frame() function to find the seconds it took the frame to render
-added statements to status_report_generator() to find the average render time per frame and estimated remaining time for each job
-added comments to status_report_generator()

-added entire blend_frame_watchdog() fucntion

- I will debug it tomorrow, its 5am as of this commit
/*
  Configuration file for distren.
  Currently, this file is being prepared as the goal for this project. For instance, the ability to support connecting and communicating with servers is suggested by the server sections.
*/

/*
  currently, server's are only supported rudimentarily. If a job has n frames and there are s servers, n / (s + 1) frames will be sent to each individual server and also rendered on the machine the job was submitted to. There will be no recursive distribution of jobs, but I want to make that possible in the future. AND, I want job IDs to have significance based on 1: the files, 2: the versions of software used to render just like git, mercurial, or bazaar's commit IDs have significance. This will allow global distribution of renderjobs without requiring central servers to coordinate the jobs - a network only need be distributed. And complex algorithms based on timeouts and completion of jobs should allow slow servers to reassign jobs to fast ones and, possibly, find shorter routes to return the resulting images to the original job submitter.

  Just a pointer, for the multiple server architecture, we would need to designate one server as a "master" server to avoid obvious issues. We can code it flexibly though. --Normaldotcom
     I don't know what ``obvious'' issues you're talking about ;-) --ohnobinki
