True, we're indeed working towards this.
Right now, we've integrated FEM meshing of topologies, and are currently
working on setting boundary conditions on these resulting meshes.
Currently I'm working on this. Its not yet progressing very rapidly, since in
order to do so, I also need some time to familiarize myself with FEM.
Finally, some architectural questions in terms of software development are
present also; where does pythonOCC starts / stop with FEM integration?
There is clearly no point in duplicating Salome…
I'm hoping to find the time this week to develop an example.

This seems like the right thread ;')

That is a _fantastic_ offer! Yes please Pierre, that would a wonderful
contribution!
Let me get on the private email with you such that we can get started.
Many thanks for sharing your expertise here with us.

No code yet ;'(

Still, when following some of the links:
http://www.cmap.polytechnique.fr/~optopo/index.php
Something very interesting; I've been working intensively together with Marc
Schoenauer, see:
http://www.inria.fr/saclay/resources/computer-culture/a-rt-lgorithm-design-informed-by-mathematics
Also am fascinated by the work of Francois Jouve.
So its a huge pleasure to see this link.
Many thanks for pointing that out Pierre!
