[Bf-committers] GSoC 2011: Improving Retopology Tools

there is nothing difficult to implement - there is already working code.
the implementation will just interface with ready parts.

maybe

but one question - let us select a huge part of mesh 'cut' it and feed
to algo you implemented
will it handle it?

I think so, maybe a 'hole' will be filled - but again - Blender has a
code to bring two meshes together ( more there are hints what to bring
together ).

the same goes for rohith approach - but here is even better - the cut
area will be prevented, so to merge simplified mesh will be even
easier

in final there is what is pen is about. To outline area and to simplify it.

And it is all within reach of SoC application.

and of cause - there is no intentional heat other than - it would be
better within give range of possibilities to have better outcomes.

And if it discourages students - is a question. Really. They are not
made of paper.
