Graham,
Please do keep us posted on this with your trials and share your code.
As a fellow member of the “not one of us” crowd, I am interested in pushing
GEOS beyond the very confined geography domain.
Thanks,
Regina

Over the 20 year lifetime of GEOS there have been at least 6 developers
involved at a deep algorithmic level (fixing bugs and design issues and
contributing new and improved algorithms). And now that GEOS is so mature
and widely used, I'd say the bar is higher.
Anyway, the key point is: let's

As others have said on this thread, adding curve support to GEOS is likely
to be a big effort.
My opinion is that to consider an extension of this magnitude, there needs
to be evidence that this initiative is feasible and sustainable over the
long term (at least 10 years). A good way to
