Are questions specifically about external render engines (engines not bundled with official blender) allowed?
For example, What's going wrong with my Luxrender Prism?

I don't see any reason not to allow these, but I suggest that it be limited to render engines with blender integration (i.e. usable directly from blender's UI).
Using external render engines seems like a fairly common thing among blender users, and I think it definitely fits under our current scope:

$\begingroup$ You should mention that this is all right so long as it refers to using the renderer with Blender. $\endgroup$ Mar 30, 2015 at 20:20

render engines with blender integrationmeansusing the renderer with blender- For sure we could distinguish, if the render process happens directly in blender or needs a separate application, but I think this doesn't matter to specify this, as long blender is the main application, which is sending the job to the renderer. $\endgroup$– p2orMar 31, 2015 at 11:13 -
$\begingroup$ @poor sorry about that - I missed that part when I read it the first time. :P $\endgroup$ Mar 31, 2015 at 21:24
