[Bf-committers] New modifier: Reduced order shape optimization using offset surfaces

[Lukas Gersthofer]

Hi all.

My name is Lukas and I'm from Vienna, Austria. I'm studying Visual
Computing at the Vienna University of Technology and I'm going to work on
my Bachelor thesis this term. It's about implementing and distributing the
following paper as a blender plugin:
https://www.cg.tuwien.ac.at/research/publications/2015/musialski-2015-souos/

My supervisor (the main author of the paper, Przemyslaw Musialski) wants me
to implement it as a modifier (like Laplacian Deform).

I will use two external libraries:
 - Eigen 3.2.7        http://eigen.tuxfamily.org/
 - libigl 1.2.1          http://libigl.github.io/libigl/

Both libs are licensed under the MPL2.

And there comes my question:
Do you agree with the development of this new modifier?
I hope you do :)
