For Wu's project (implicit conversion) I was wondering if the conversion.sh script could be tweaked to use the brep command in MGED and systematically test the conversion routines. Obviously any of the combs would just read as unsupported for now, but it might be a good way to fire a lot of primitives at the brep conversion routines.
 
That sounds like a fantastic idea.  The purpose of that script is to test our ability to convert between different representation formats, so adding other representation formats like BREP/NURBS and even volumetric (Anurag) fit perfectly within its scope.  Right now it tests (arbitrary) input conversion to:

evaluated boundary representation faceted polygonal mesh (NMG)
evaluated boundary representation faceted triangle mesh (BoT)

and we should add testing for:

unevaluated boundary representation trimmed nurbs (CSG+BREP)
evaluated boundary representation trimmed nurbs (BREP)
evaluated implicit representation gridded volumetric (VOL)

Cheers!
