I seem to remember reading that nurbs are based on b-splines and 
subdivision surfaces are based on bezier patches mathematically. . .not 
sure if that implies any compatibility betweem the two, although the 
t-spline people claim that t-splines are either a superset or an 
ancestor (can't remember which) of bother nurbs and subds.

Is there anyone on this list who really knows the math behind all this?
