This is a good question - we need a group for advanced users. So, if you get
new groups you will see a group called 'povray.advanced-users'.

Hmm, interesting move. But if I qualify, I'm all for it ;)

Interesting idea.
But probably what you will get is all the new people, coming over
to the advanced group because they know that there will be people
there who will know the answers, and spoon feed them.
I don't like elitism, and feel that the general feeling within
the wider POV community would be that we tend to be a very
cosmopolitan bunch, and the misture of ideas, between all the
different aspects adds a freshness that you probably wouldn't
find elsewhere. Carving the groups up would probably drain some
of this freshness and give the place more of a school feel, where
students are split up into groups just to make them easier to
supervis.
Just my 2p worth.
Cheers

I wonder if "Advanced" might include P-R users of old like me despite my
shortcomings. Well, I'll just subscribe and figure it out later, same as
everything else.
