As Poser is the ONLY app of its kind out there I think this is an excellent
idea. Love it or hate it, if you need people in your images, & don't have
either the skill or time to create from scratch in another app, then you
use Poser.
While there are many Poser sites out there already, I find the er...
proprietary... atmosphere of most of them keeps me from ever participating.
Most of them are not about exchanging information, but trying to sell you
someone's mediocre props.
A forum here, with the usual POV atmosphere would be great!

A Poseray forum, and a Wings3d forum too, to boot! :)

Of course, the risk is that a few years from now, we may start asking for
povray.politics, povray.used-cars and povray.relationships ;)

From a consistent hierarchy point of view I would think that povray.text.utilities
would be a better fit. I have often thought it inconsistent that we had the
povray.utilities.binaries group without the .text group for related discussions.

Is that what it's supposed to mean? I never did understand the
text/binaries designation.
And what are p.b.tutorials and p.t.tutorials intended to be used for?

Wasn't it gonzo who wrote:

But it may not be the only app of its kind for long. DAZ Studio is
currently in pre-beta testing. I believe that DAZ decided to write their
own application because they can't use Poser-5 due to the restrictive
nature of its user licence.
DAZ Studio may possibly find greater acceptance within the POV community
because the full-beta version will be free to everyone. The current
version is free to people who've paid to become members of the DAZ
Platinum Club.

Heh, yes indeed, true. ;) I think Tim's idea is the right way to
go.

traditionally, that would be
povray.binaries.utilities.d
or
povray.binaries.utilities.discuss
not povrray.text as the 'text' refers to the type of content posted
further clarified by the last name section (i.e., scene-files)
text content in re third party utilities (reviews, manual explications,
howtos)
would probably belong in
povray.text.utilities.reviews
povray.text.utilities.howtos
although there is some sense of redundancy here
the second level name section has always been meant to be used so
that readers could quickly determine whether the group could comprise
binaries or not
(absent 'binaries' the assumption is that content would be
textual (( ! html) ) )
see usent history, etc.
except for binaries groups (which relates to transit and storage
issues) the general content rule has always turned out to be that user
custom and usage rules except when the server owner decides otherwise
