I am doing a master course on computer graphics, and I'm also planning to work 
on yafray for my dissertation.

I was at first going to use the yaf(a)ray rework as a start point, but I've 
got no answer from the author of that rework, and I saw many messed up code 
on that (like including likes using MS-dos line ending and so on), and then I 
decided to work on the traditional yafray.

It seems blender does not have a cvs server anymore, but yafray was imported 
into blender SVN server:
   svn co https://svn.blender.org/svnroot/yafray/trunk yafray

I haven't yet started to work on yafray, but I'm planning to, and maybe we can 
join efforts on understanding it and adding new features.

Cheers
