Hmm... you mean IRTC, I suppose?

I think that the short answer is: the Short Code Contest. That is a POV only 
contest with impressive results.

More in general, I wonder why you would want to restrict your creative 
powers to only POV-Ray, when you can happily mix different things: objects 
you make in Wings3D, height_fields you create in Leveller or World Machine, 
creatures you control in Poser... all coming together in POV-Ray to be 
rendered. I don't think POV-Ray is in need of proving itself, not to 
community anyway. Just my two cents...
