| Indigo, Kerkythea, LuxRender for instance. There's also Yafaray, which 
is a
| "reboot" of Yafray. It's described as a raytracer but supports other
| rendering algorithms. Of course POV-Ray itself is also "post 
raytracing"

Indigo went commercial after 1.18
Can't see the price as their 'buy' link fails.

Kerkythea probably won't get much attention as the
develioers niw have a commercial business.
Looks like October 2008 was the last update.


LuxRender seems fairly young along the development
road.

Isn't Yafaray part of Blender now?
