  Why is everyone comparing the radiosity of Beta 30 with the newest
radiosity version?

  Unless I'm completely mistaken, the radiosity code in 3.7 beta
versions <= 30 was, by all intents and purposes, non-functional and
certainly not intended to be used for anything. The code was just
provisionally there to give *something* (rather than eg. just crashing
the program) but not as the intended functionality.

  What people should compare against is the radiosity in 3.6.
