This is the version of last February - http://geometrylibrary.geodan.nl, here is documentation available as well as zipped sources. Same version, February 2009 - SVN at Geodan, the latest (development) version available, of sources and documentation (and tests and examples). This also has new intersections and clipping. We will move this to the Boost Sandbox as well in the next preview (now scheduled October 2009), but currently it is no problem to give you SVN access to our SVN repository. Regards / groeten, Barend Hi Milo,

There are three ways to access the sources:
- https://svn.boost.org/svn/boost/sandbox/ggl, the boost sandbox. This is the version of last February
- http://geometrylibrary.geodan.nl, here is documentation available as well as zipped sources. Same version, February 2009
- SVN at Geodan, the latest (development) version available, of sources and documentation (and tests and examples). This also has new intersections and clipping.

We will move this to the Boost Sandbox as well in the next preview (now scheduled October 2009), but currently it is no problem to give you SVN access to our SVN repository.

The <a href="http://trac.osgeo.org/ggl" rel="nofollow">Wiki and Trac (bug tracker)</a> is hosted by OSGeo and works in the same way as it works for GDAL, MapServer, etc. See the Trac frontpage for <a href="http://geometrylibrary.geodan.nl/download.html" rel="nofollow">download</a> information. By the way, I've forwarded your questions to Barend Gehrels (GGL project manager) and he's going to provide you with further details. Milo, the Subversion repository has not been published yet.

GGL seems to pursue very similar goals, especially comparing to GEOS as it is focused on extensive use of all the power of C++ programming language. However, GGL does not cover as wide range of algorithms as GEOS does. GGL is in quite early stage of development comparing to GEOS and it's still walking through <a href="http://lists.boost.org/Archives/boost/2009/02/148450.php" rel="nofollow">preview phases</a>. I'm not sure what's the GGL plan regarding OGC vs ISO19107. The GGL core team is better to ask to, so perhaps you could post to ggl@lists.osgeo.org. Jody,
