Citing CGAL and Acknowledgements #112

Open rikba opened 3 years ago

When writing a paper where you use CGAL and its data structures please make sure that you figure out, which components you use. For example, if you use Mesh_3, I guess, you should cite at least

Laurent Rineau and Mariette Yvinec. A generic software design for Delaunay refinement meshing. Comput. Geom. Theory Appl., 38:100–110, 2007.

I think it's not always easy to figure out, who wrote what, but on the other hand investigating what are the underlying packages that you are using will also help to avoid dependency hell, and the authors will be happy and acknowledged.
