Brecht,<div><br></div><div>While I'm sure you've already seen it, this paper (<a href="http://gruenschloss.org/msbvh/msbvh.pdf">http://gruenschloss.org/msbvh/msbvh.pdf</a>) offers a decent solution for improving BVH traversal where time-interpolated nodes are involved.<br>
<br>I'd also point you at <a href="http://gruenschloss.org/motion-blur/motion-blur.pdf">http://gruenschloss.org/motion-blur/motion-blur.pdf</a> although it's a pretty well-known paper as well. I figure it can't hurt to point it out though!</div>

<br>
Some of you might have seen this presentation from the conference,<br>
summarizing what we did last year, what we did not succeed at and what<br>
the plans are for the next year:<br>

<br>
The wiki developer documentation has also been updated, so here is the<br>
current roadmap I'm thinking of:<br>

<br>
For developer who want to help out, they can of course work on those<br>
big features, or pick up one of the smaller features on the updated<br>
todo list here:<br>

<br>
For rendering experts or anyone who likes to think about hard<br>
problems, here's a number of technical issues that I've thought about<br>
but can't seem to find a good answer for:<br>

<br>
For users who are not developers but want to contribute in some other<br>
way, the documentation can always be improved. For example renders to<br>
demonstrate texture nodes and their features, example .blend file<br>
setups for nodes, details on how to achieve certain shading effects or<br>
avoid artifacts, etc.<br>

Thanks!<br>
