As somebody says it's only a Pre-Alpha. There's a release roadmap at 
http://makehuman.wiki.sourceforge.net/Release_RoadMap which places the full 
release about 8 months away. On the other hand, as Greg pointed out, the 
POV-Ray export already works and should enable you to use new features as 
they get rolled out. The main one IMO being the ability to pose figures 
which is currently timetabled for May.

I've been using the POV-Ray export to help with the documentation and used 
it to generate the body part browser here: 
http://makehuman.sourceforge.net/FaceGroups/BodyBrowser.html and the 
ethnicity turntable tool here: 
http://makehuman.sourceforge.net/Ethnic_Groups/ethnicity.html?GroupName=Pigmy,Khiosan.

I'm still enhancing the POV-Ray export functionality, so if anyone has any 
spiffing ideas, or wants to help, let me know.

Regards,
Chris B.
