Well, lets get positive:-)
I like the idea of joining efforts and it will be good to find good
resources on povray.org. I personally got a little bored of going there
once a week to find nothing new. 
But, yes there is a but, I found twysted.net a bit more responsive than
povray.org. I wonder if the server will seamlessly take the additional
load. It would be a sad thing to see a good resource coming up at no
speed.

Keep alive and kicking, and I look forward to the 'new' site

Axel
