I added the description blurb to the OP. I created this as an informative release notice thread for people who already used Blender, not as a Blender discussion thread.

Blender is an exceptional suite of open source tools for 3D creation.
It has a very steep learning curve, though.

I noticed that as I proceeded further into reading parts on that site..
Still, it looks very promising :)
