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 definition of early.
Thanks to everyone for the heads-up and support

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. And consider that picogen does not have any significant user base, yet.So I tried out TikiWiki, which is really a full blown content management system with a ton of usefull modules and features.The one thing I like at most: Central user group management, a banning system, safe settings by default.I took a good style that was distributed along with the TikiWiki package, and modified it significantl...
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://picogen.deviantart.com/gallery/24368295#/d34sdza . That feature can only be meaningful if you *have* parametric presets, and for that, I introduced a file based database. In the futur...

... left before I must submit an image "of flowers, trees, foliage, seeds, or anything to do with plants, either real or imagined, on earth or elsewhere" to http://irtc.org (IRTC).A plethora of features have been added "just" to be able to render trees, I think so many that I could tag the next release with version 0.10 instead of 0.3. Stay snoopy, I've also mocked up the rough layout of the http://phresnel.deviantart.com/art/Early-Mockup-of-Next-GUI-177505794 (next GUI) . But back on topic: Less than a day left. Right now I am rendering two variations of one image that features a nice, foggy sunset, with many trees + (yay!) semi transpa...
