Freshmeat: This release fixes several oversights. The documentation was improved, and example scenes are now shipped. Performance was improved, and memory consumption was reduced. A path tracer has been added. The Debian packages are now clean with respect to Lintian.
It is important for users of the .deb package to note that they must first uninstall their existing picogen installation before upgrading, as the old version numbering was wrong

Master-Target for 0.3~beta7: Improve documentation with a ton of examples.

Complains and support at: picogen.org/forum/
And if you want to help with documentation: picogen.org/wiki/
Any help and feedback is much appreciated.
Sorry for not providing a 64bit Windows build, but I am lacking licenses.
Linux-Sidenote: If you can't use the .deb-packages or can't install the right packages for the tar.gz's, it might be worth trying the windows versions through wine. This perfectly functioned for me!

Picogen's dead, but it lives on in excygen :)
Spare Time
I took a new job some 2 years ago.
This unfortunately increased my travelling time from just 10 minutes to now 1.5 hours per day. For a long time, it was even at 3 hours. In effect, my spare time (== picogen time, among other things) was drastically reduced.
I have learned the basics of Haskell and also learned Python. Those languages are great in that they give you more effect per line of code.
Picogen is not forgotten and still the tool of my dream. It's really just that I currently lack the time to continue the pace of the past.
Hopefully my new knowledge will turn into new picogen releases early, but I unfortunately can't give you a d
New wiki: TikiWiki is a bless
I have serious problems keeping the old MediaWiki clean. Serious problems, in that configuring MediaWiki seems like a full time job, in that fighting spam posts seems like a full time job, in that MediaWiki is mostly open to anonymous by default.

I took a good style that was distributed along with the TikiWiki package, and modified it significa
on picogen 0.4
(update below)
To not bore you with unecessary details right now, just let me say that the last remaining "master" feature (*) that was mandatory for the 0.4 release is 99% complete.
What does remain are details, whose sum is still significant, but the gros work has been done.
(*) it is related to "Parametric Presets", where you use some program/user-supplied heightfunction that can be tweaked by just a handfull of edit-boxes and drop-downs et cetera, see http://fav.me/d34sdza . That feature can only be meaningful if you *have* parametric presets, and for that, I introduced a file based database. In the fu
