  State of Povray 3.8.0 (?)

Hi all,

I had a scene file that kept crashing povray 3.7.0.8 which I had been 
using for quite a while so I went to github to look for something newer.

There is a branch called release/v3.8.0
I've downloaded and compiled a version from it. Worked fine on the scene 
file that kept crashing 3.7, and all the other files I used it with 
since. Didn't find any problems yet.

I just wanted to ask, what is the official view on this version? 3.8.0 
seems not to be released as something official anywhere.

The download page ( https://www.povray.org/download/ ) still points to 3.7.0

Besides that I wanted to say, big thanks to all the developers for 
working on this! I had my first contact with Povray mid of the 90s and 
was using it occasionally, since about 8 years quite seriously now. It's 
a tremendous tool and I hope it will stay around some longer :)

Best regards,
Hajo
