It's an excellent news ! I found megapov very impressive but... Where is the
finish_map patch that was included in mlpov 0.83 ? I don't think that patch
was:

- buggy
- incomplete
- published too late to be included
- incompatible to POV-Ray 3.6 (I don't really know)
- no one found the time to add it (Really ;-)  or in beta 2 ??)
- did not appear useful (I don't think so...)

Also, you really made good job to maintain megapov (You and the "patchers")
I Hope megapov will continue to evolution like this trough the years... ;-))
