Hi Brandon,

Our library, as it is currently in the boost vault folder, is uploaded by Federico for his GSoC project (to create a compiling source code set). It is not managed by Bruno and me. You're looking at a random piece of code of an intermediary stage, something soon after preview 2. The new version will be published very soon.
It generally refers to points as Bruno has mentioned, in the tuple way. However, there is also support for xy-points and latlong-points. Some algorithms might (still) refer to those types of points.
Regards, Barend

But as we said, this version of the library is deprecated by the incoming one. You'll have a very good idea of the work made in the meanwhile by browsing the archives, as Luke suggested.

Bruno, Berand, I posted this to clarify how I implemented the ideas for Patrick or anyone else who was confused by my post. I think it is relevant because a) there are many long threads in the archive on geometry which are difficult to follow (so the points may be hard to uncover.) and b) I couldn't find any where someone has committed to this exact mechanism. Cheers, Brandon
