The main purpose of POV-Ray v4.0 will be a transition from the older C code
to a hopefully more modular and robust C++ code base. v3.5 was based on
the v3.1g source code and was basically a patch upgrade. How the final
version of 4.0 will turn out is anybody's guess at this point in time.
The POV-Team has not yet completed the planning for 4.0 and there is still
much to work out before they can start work on it.
