-
-mesh/conformalVoronoiMesh
-    - all the meshing. See separate section below.
-
-polyMeshGeometry:
-    - disabled tetquality check on face-center decomp tet.
-      Check only minTetDecomp tet.
-
-      limits face filtering if enabled. So cv3d can generate neg.
-      (face-centre decomp) tets but pyramid volumes are still positive!
-
-indexedOctree:
-    - findSphere routine
-
-closedTriSurfaceMesh :
-    triSurface which is defined closed even though topologically it isn't.
-
-searchableSurface  :
-    - bounds_ member data
-    - bool overlaps() const routine
-searchableSurfaces, searhcableSurfacesQueries  :
-    - findNearestIntersection routine
-    - bounds routines
-
-surfaceFeatures:
-    - trimFeatures function returns trimmed bits
-
-triSurfaceTools:
-    - surfaceSide.
-
-    the edge code is irrelevant. Use dev bits.
-    
-indexedOctree:
-    - findSphere
-
-polyMeshTetDecomposition:
-    - disabled face-centre tet quality check (but kept minTetDecomp)
-
-polyMesh.C:
-    - read cell centres if present.
-
-    Can be scrapped. Not useful. Does not write cell centres, does not
-    do decomposition, reconstruction, moving meshes.
-
-primitiveMesh:
-    - overrideCellCentres
-
-triangleI.H:
-    - stabilised triangle quality. Ok.
-
-memInfo:
-    - added I/O operators. Useful.
-
-distributedTrisurfaceMesh:
-    - additional reduce on boundBox. Can be removed only on the one
-    constructed from boundBox (line 2300)
-
-
-Utilities/
-
-cvMesh:
-    - top level mesher
-
-checkMesh:
-    - override cellCentres. Remove if the polyMesh stuff gets removed.
-
-surfaceCheck:
-    - moved triSurface quality into triangle. Use cvm.
-
-surfaceBooleanFeatures:
-    - new application. Determines features straight from intersection.
-    More stable than surfaceBooleanOp. Used to e.g. get the features
-    between the wheels and wind tunnel.
-    So if surfaceBooleanOp fails:
-    - use this to extract features
-    - use snappyHexMesh to defeature
-    - use cvMesh with extracted features
-    This does not work very well! Since there might still be overlapping
-    bits of triSurface that will be meshed.
- 
-surfaceFeatureExtract:
-    - uses cgal only for curvature calculation. See cgal.
-    - writes a triSurfaceField of 'curvature' and 'internal closeness'
-    and 'external closeness'. This is just a normal intersection, not
-    a nearest point. These fields get used by cvMesh. Or not yet - is part
-    of proposal to seed points according to curvature.
-    - detects features that are near?
-
-surfaceSplitByTopology:
-    - for fuel tank of Brawn. Detects baffles (markZones) and splits
-    it accordingly.

---------------------
-- Make sure the surface does not have any sliver triangles. These are
-hard to get the surface normal correct for so might cause bleeding.
-- Use surfaceCheck to find out triangle quality and size of smallest edges
-- Use surfaceClean .. 1e-5 .. to get rid of any edges < 1e-5m.
-
-- If you get bleeding you might see in face filtering:
-
-    ...
-    cells with with zero or one non-boundary face          : 1
-    ...
-    Initial check before face collapse, found 48 bad quality faces
-
-but this was real - the cell that got created inside the cone and sphere by the 
-bad triangle was actually attached to a lot of faces.  This screwed up the 
-subsequent filtering as it stopped too early.
-
-I ran:
-
-    surfaceClean coneAndSphere.obj 1e-5 coneAndSphere_clean.obj
-
-and re-ran with that surface and got
-
-    ...
-    cells with with zero or one non-boundary face          : 0
-    ...
-    Initial check before face collapse, found 0 bad quality faces
-
-and the bad cells inside are gone.
-
-That group of cells would be picked up at the end of the meshing as the
-
-    cvMesh_remainingProtrusions
-
-cellSet which can be deleted.
