Subject: CGAL 2.2, Computational Geometry Algorithms Library
Body:
We are pleased to announce release 2.2 of CGAL, the Computational
Geometry Algorithms Library.
Major additions in this release are:
o Support for the Borlnd compiler (5.5) on windows and the KAI compiler
on Solaris.
o Several optimisation algorithms (smallest enclosing annulus,
polytope_distance, width of point sets in 3D)
o Additions to 2d and 3d triangulations and 2d arrangements.
o Demos showing robustnees problems and their solutions.
o and more
The CGAL project is a collaborative effort to develop a robust,
easy-to-use, and efficient C++ software library of geometric data
structures and algorithms. The CGAL library contains:
o Basic geometric primitives such as points, vectors, lines, predicates
for testing things such as relative positions of points, and operations
such as intersections and distance calculation.
o A collection of standard data structures and geometric algorithms,
such as convex hull, (Delaunay) triangulation, planar map, polyhedron,
smallest enclosing sphere, and multidimensional query structures.
o Interfaces to other packages, e.g. for visualisation, and I/O, and
other support facilities.

documentation, please visit the CGAL web page:
