CGAL users discussion list

[Ahmet Ketenci <>]

Hi,

I am a new user of CGAL and I would like to generate surface meshes with 
the help of it. But If I understood correctly, we can't generate surface 
mesh of (for example) a cube with this release. Is it so? If so when do 
you think the next release will appear?

Thank you in advance
