Hi all,

I am using an Arrangement and a Triangulation for different parts of the 
same application and need to store (basically the same) auxiliary data 
in both. Hence my question: Why is the member for storing such things 
called differently in those two classes -  data() for Arrangement and 
info() for Triangulation? This makes it impossible to use both classes 
interchangeably as a container without writing a wrapper class that 
calls either info() or data(). Wouldn't it be nice if both have the same 
name for the sake of higher templateability?

Best regards,
Winnie
