Hi everyone!

I'm currently writing a simple CAD application based on PythonOCC for
my university thesis. (I'm studying for becoming a teacher in maths
and geometry). The application itself is almost complete: You can
watch a demonstration video at [1]. However, I will only release it as
open source when I finished writing my thesis, which will be in about
two months I guess. (If you are interested in trying it out right now,
you can contact me on bitbucket [2] and I will share the code with
you.)

I want to say thanks to everyone who contributed to pythonOCC -
especially to Thomas and Jelle! PythonOCC has enabled me to work on a
very interesting project which I really enjoyed and which will
hopefully be useful for me and others in the future.

My application will be named "Kubos" (Greek for "cube"). At first its
main purpose will be using it in geometry classes in Austria for
children aged 13-14 years. Therefore I'm trying to make the user
interface as simple as possible. However, I can imagine it to be
useful in other areas as well. The application itself is designed to
be easy to extend and I'm planning to continue developing and
expanding it when I have finished my thesis. I also have to say that
the application indeed needs some more polishing and bugfixing before
being really useful - However this is beyond the scope of my work
right now.
The thesis itself will be written in German. It will explain the
geometrical basics for CAD systems (Bézier geometry / B-rep) in detail
and will also cover an introduction to OCC / pythonOCC. I think this
could result in some useful documentation for (German) users of
pythonOCC.
