[Bf-committers] [Bf-blender-cvs] SVN commit: /data/svn/bf-blender [43428] trunk/blender: Carve booleans library integration

[Sergey Sharybin]

Hi,

Well, if you'll provide some files where you think new booleans fails when
they shouldn't it might help a lot. Me or Tobias (Carve's author) can try
to improve something.
