Here we have a legal issue. The CGAL project cannot ship that package under
GPLv3+ for a limited period, deprecate it, and remove it. We do not have that
right. We had not really the choice.
Keep using CGAL-3.9, where the package is under QPL.
If that issue is really a blocker for your work, make the head of your
department write to the head of department of the authors of 2D Voronoi
Diagram Adaptor. Maybe that could speed up the resolution of that legal issue.
