Hi all,

Just wanted to drop a note that I can now correctly (as indicated by a simple
test, anyway) convert the Nef Polyhedra with open polygons to K-3D meshes
that retain the open polygons.

The next problem I have to tackle is the inverse conversion: construct a Nef
polyhedron from a K-3D mesh. Is there a method to manually make facets of a
Nef polyhedron open?

I am thinking of omitting the edge cycles that make the polyhedra of the k-3D
mesh open, convert this mesh to a CGAL::Polyhedron, convert that to a Nef
Polyhedron using the constructor, and then add the cycles to make the open
facets open again.

regards,

Bart
