metabolace 1.1.8.dev1

Active fork of lace, the Body Labs-developed polygonal mesh library

This is an active fork of lace, the Body Labs-developed polygonal mesh library.

The fork’s goals are ambitious:

• Keep the library working in current versions of Python and other tools.

• Make bug fixes.

• Provide API stability and backward compatibility with the upstream version.

• Expand functionality to fully support quad meshes, and additional analysis and manipulation functionality where appropriate.

• Respond to community contributions.
