The problem is that ceres3 only shows/transforms one channel.
ceres1 can handle up to 8 channels simultaniously. Thats a quite huge 
internal difference.

That would be great. I'm not so sure how much time I have to spend on 
Ceres right now. But such a list would at laset be nice to put into the 
documentation.

Problem is that they shouldn't have been named ceres2/3, but instead
something like ceres-newversion. Even here at notam, I sometimes see 
people use ceres3. I ask them why, and they say its because its the latest 
version.
