As I've said quite a lot of times, Po-POV means "more POV" in
Bulgarian, so I think the name fits the project well. In the spirit of
POV-Ray, I will not require royalties on my or my grand-grandfather's
behalf :)

No, since i have no use for a dos version the source code would be much
more useful for me.

I will release it soon.

BTW: Your recent post in povray.programming reminded me about issue not listed
in my "to do" but already concerned - documentation. You have started such
discussion some time ago. There is no discussion what format for sample files:
POV SDL. There is no discussion what format for source files: C++. But what
format for documentation ?

Ingo suggested docbook which seems a good idea, but since i don't know
much about it and also don't have the time to do much research in that
concern right now i did not pursue it any further.  If anyone can supply a
framework for this including a small tutorial how one can document own
patches this would be really great.  I think Meal (from the french POV
community) already did some work in that concern.

I will test it during weekend.

OK, first big feature request is to add to POV the greatly missing feature 
of good depths of field. That is, find the guy who added the bokeh ("good 
looking out of focus areas") patch and get this patch/add it to PoPOV. This 
will eliminate the blocky square out of focus areas, which in my opinion 
look quite ugly.

Here's all the info I have:

That's unfortunate (its unavailability), I sure would like to play with the
bokeh_pigment on this scene and see how good it is..

Thanks. I will see. Perhaps not in the nearest patched POV but I will remember
about this request and I will consider this. I promise :-)
