Writing a geometry library is hard, look at CGAL over $1million Euros in funding, both commercial and academic wings and look at the monstrosity they have produced. If you can determine the intersection point of 2 line segments in under 15lines of code using CGAL I take my hat off to you :>
As someone who has *tried* to use CGAL to do intersections and a variety of other operations in under 15 lines of code, I second this statement. My only advice: don't let a Boost geometry library turn into CGAL. :-) Cheers, Demian
