[vtkusers] whatever happened to vtkPowerCrustSurfaceReconstruction ?

[Tim Hutton]

Take a look here:
http://www.sq3.org.uk/powercrust/

It was never part of a VTK release. It was briefly in the CVS but
rapidly removed when we realised what the implications would be of
including code covered by the GPL.

For your python project, you should be able to rebuild VTK to include
powercrust and wrap it into python methods. I haven't done this
myself.
