Well, I am motivated to give it a go, since I only have the summer to make
progress on project and it is blocking my research progress right now. Can
you give me a pointer to where the appropriate quantities are defined? I
can certainly write code to make the transformations, but it is a bit hard
without understanding precisely what is defined in the Mesh2D object. I
have made a simple Mesh2D object, but I am not sure which of the
attributes, etc, are absolutely required, or how they are precisely
defined.

Perhaps most useful for me would be

   1. a definition of which parts of the Mesh2D object must exist
   2. and the format of those parts, in particular the a face to vertex
   array and a
   cell to face array

Or you could point me to the appropriate part of the Gmsh code so I can go
from there. I presume poking around in fipy.Gmsh2D would be a good place to
start? Is there a better place to start?

I would love any documentation on the details of the Mesh2D object.

Thanks,
