Since the original version of the function rt_ell_brep() just implements the scaling, so it can only deal with ellipsoids(as well as spheres) centered at the origin and with A, B, C set along the X, Y, Z axis respectively. So I add rotation and translation to it, using affine transformations. Now it can deal with all ellipsoids.
You can find my patch at:

Thanks and nice work, Wu.  The patch has a few issues that need correcting before it could be applied, but that's a good example of patch complexity that is nice to see from students proposing one of the "HARD" project ideas on our list.

Again, difficulty/complexity isn't an acceptance factor (so don't be scared if math isn't your thing) but is used to determine whether we think you can accomplish the project you're proposing.

Remember GSoC candidates that there is only 7 days remaining now before the submission deadline!  The better we get to know you, the better chances your application usually will be.  You're encouraged to speak up with specific questions here or on the IRC channel.  Looking forward to hearing from those of you that still haven't introduced themselves yet.

Cheers!
Sean
