My understanding of the quaternions lib is that it is not useful for doing rotations and that stuff needed in the 3D graphics world.
Could you please elaborate? I did include one possible way of linking with rotations in the library. This work did stem (in part) from some work with rotations specifically for some 3D graphics problem (though this part, interpolation of orientation under constraints, is *not* included in the library).
If you intend to submit it, I would like to see motifications that made this possible.

I am open to any suggestion. I must say this post is something of a surprise to me. Perhaps are you referring to the lack of any "reasonably standard" C++ implementation of rotations in R^3? Merci Hubert
