The beta testing period will be announced to visitors to this news server.
You will have an opportunity to contribute at that time.

It will be released when it is complete. It will be available for the 
public to beta test when it is ready for public beta. ;-)

Please read the message "POV-Team Status Report - September 1, 2000" by 
Chris Cason in the povray.announce.frequently-asked-questions newsgroup 
for more information.

Well, I am now wearing my mage uniform. Looking inside a glass sphere
(obviously set upon a checkered floo ;-)) I see... I see... I see...

*) beta testing starting may/june 2001
*) 3.5 released before Christmas 2001
*) stable version (3.5c/d) by march/2002

Please keep this message, so that we can check whether it is better for me
to stop consult and start a fortune-telling service...

As far as I have seen, its really worth the wait. Patience.

From what I infer from the official information upon 3.5, it is a cleaned up
subset of MegaPOV 0.5... or is there something else? ;-)

bye!!!

Pretty close...read the message in "POV-Team Status Report - September 
1, 2000" by Chris Cason in povray.announce.frequently-asked-questions.
I believe the code base is 3.1, not MegaPOV, though a lot of code from 
MegaPOV will be added. And it will contain many of the features from 
MegaPOV as well as a couple completely new ones, but the syntax and 
usage won't necessarily be the same.

  I don't have full understanding of the change logs of the version system
used by the pov-team (and I'm not sure if the team would like me telling
too much about the new version... :P ), but as far as I seen, there may be
more than just a subset of megapov features. Or perhaps I just haven't
understood correctly.
