Open albert-github opened 1 year ago

albert-github commented 1 year ago

In Documentation/doc/Documentation/Third_party.txt(Manual/thirdparty.html) there is a link to:

http://vegas.loria.fr/rs/

but this link does not exist anymore.

afabri commented 12 months ago

I found RS and RS3 on Fabrice Rouiller's Software page, but I have no idea about its availability. @pougetma are you aware of colleagues in Nancy using it?

afabri commented 12 months ago

I also sent a mail to Fabrice.

albert-github commented 4 months ago

Any progress on this as the link is still present in the documentation (version 6.0) of CGAL (Documentation build CGAL-6.0-I-253)

@afabri Was there any answer?

afabri commented 4 months ago

For licensing reasons Fabrice would have to provide a binary with just the functions we need. I think we should just remove it.

albert-github commented 4 months ago

I think we should just remove it.

Do you mean the RS / RS3 usage code from CGAL?

afabri commented 4 months ago

Yes, let's just plain remove it as a cleanup.

afabri commented 2 months ago

@pougetma do I understand correctly that the only models for the concept AlgebraicKernel_d_1 depend on RS ?

afabri commented 2 months ago

I just saw that other classes state that they are model. link

Does anybody know where we need NTL (@sloriot )
