Thanks, but cgal is not a suitable candidate: it's not c89, it's C++. I can't use the docs either, because the goal of the poly lib rewrite is to have a lib that does exactly the same as the current one does. So it's not like I am going to rewrite it from scratch to use a different algorithm. Please note: the original email you replied to was about one specific request (hardware). I did a lot of research and there was some mailing about this earlier, and the conclusion of having to write our own poly lib is already reached. We don't need to go and spend more time on rehashing that part. Going forward, what we need is time (or funding; I am working on that part already) and for the opencl part hardware. Do you have hardware matching the request in the original mail you could offer? Best regards, Igor2
