Our FlySpray bug- and feature-request-tracker at http://bugs.povray.org 
is nearing its 100th entry - we have 99 so far.


Of these 99 entries, 61 are possible bugs, definite bugs or 
compatibility issues; 21 are feature requests, and 16 are unimplemented 
features / TODOs; the last remaining one is a duplicate.

Of the 61 bugs or issues, 28 have been closed by now, another 9 are 
standing by to have their fixes released and tested in the next beta.

That leaves 23 known bugs & issues still open; add 2 more pending beta 
testing which may need a bit of additional work later depending on user 
feedback.

Of the 16 unimplemented features / TODOs, 3 are pertaining to 
documentation. From what I hear there's still a lot to do there, so if 
you feel like getting involved in the development of POV-Ray but don't 
know how to program, here's your chance: Just contact Jim Holsenback, 
and he'll make sure you won't die of boredom ;-). Likewise, if you have 
/any/ comments or suggestions to the documentation, you are welcome to 
raise your voice on the Wiki (http://wiki.povray.org).

Of the remaining 13 non-doc UFs / TODOs, i'd consider 3 as crucial for 
3.7 final release, pertaining to render abort/continue and related 
features. The other 10 could most probably be postponed until a later 
version.


To me as a POV-Ray developer, the bug tracker has been a great help so 
far to keep an overview over all the open major and minor issues that 
still need work. Thumbs up to Chris for setting it up in the first place!
