[Soc-2016-dev] Weekly report #12 - Bezier curve improvements

[João Araújo]

Hi,

I recognize I was a little careless with the reports, forgetting to mention
what was going on at the same time on the BA thread.

Thanks to the help from Duarte and tungerz, I managed to find and fix many
bugs. Duarte also provided some good pictures illustrating the operators.
Recently I asked about UI issues, and got some feedback accordingly.

I will work hard on documentation during this week. I am looking at
previous final reports to get an idea of what has been done in previous
years.

Best regards,
João

> every time I tried to record one I ended up discovering a new bug.
>
> * Fix mathematical issues with the offset and the fillet operator.
>
> * Write documentation.
>
> * Add pictures and example files to my wiki page.
>
> * Fill in the final evaluation.
