POV-Ray:

** Spline still broken and missing features
& Still no demo scene for splines

** function names as macro parameters (possible bug)

** photons ignore projected_through

** photons ignore light_groups

** "Warning: No pigment type given" message when a light_group is used

** TIFF does not work in height_field
Parse Error: Unknown image type in image_height_at.

** TIFF and JPEG might be broken in other ways
See Gilles' post "Re: Known Bugs"

** Blob bug?

** Highlight bug?
Highlights, when used together with normals, are visible in places 
where they should be in shadow.

** trace() doesn't work with objects that have no_image specified

** POV can dereference a deallocated pointer if you return a local from 
a macro

** Area-light 'orient' does not work right. Fixed, but not in current 
beta

** 'select' in functions: the three parameter version will change, now 
comparison is </=> than 0, it will become <=/> than 0.


Include-files:

** The current implementation of the HF-generation macros doesn't work.


Documentation:

** Radiosity section is not ready yet.

** Mesh2 tutorial is W.I.P.

** Several minor issues.

Misc.

** There are a small dozen inactive keywords that get highlighted in 
the editor. Most of these are MegaPov specific and have no function in 
3.5. The much used noise3d is one of them.
