Not sure whether this should really go here or in p.tools.general, but
I'll try it here. Given the large number of 'export to x' abilities in
Blender, and the large number of 'x to povmesh' scripts out there,
what's the best route to take to import a Blender object into a POV-Ray
scene, in terms of having a convertor that works well, preserving
attributes like normals and UV co-ords, and ease-of-use?
I'm interested to hear what people are using.

Thanks,
Daniel

I don't use it, but POVANIM seems to be the most known:
