Comment (by ncohen):

 Yo !

 > will do: these are the parameters of a projective space design (assuming
 that they only exists for prime powers ;-)

 Also : don't we use at the same time "projective space design" and
 "projective geometry design" ?

 > Yeah it would be cool to check the t-design parameters of projective
 geometry designs fit what `are_projective_space_parameters` check for.
 Actually, it would make sense to move `are_projective_space_parameters` to
 `block_design.py`. What do you think?

 'conway=True` trick in `singer_difference_set` ?

 > Nope. I need relative extensions `GF(q) -> GF(q^(d+1))`. The trick would
 only "work" for prime fields. Moreover, testing if an element of an
 extension belongs to the span over `GF(q)` of `(1,z,...,z^(d-1))` is a
 mess (and trivial if you deal directly with polyonials).

 mod `c` (the relative Conway polynomial), but it seems the easiest way to
 go.
