MegaPOV:
Fixes many 3.1 bugs.
Not compatible with official versions.
Adds many new features, which may or may not be useful to you.

POV 3.5:
Even more bug fixes than MegaPOV.
Adds the most complete features of MegaPOV, and often with a better 
syntax and implementation.
It's official.

The biggest features of MegaPOV, photon mapping, new media methods, 
isosurfaces, etc, have made it into POV 3.5. MegaPOV itself is a bit 
outdated, it won't be updated until after 3.5 is finished, and probably 
not until most of the authors update their patches.
