Hi! 

I'm Rika from Japan, currently in 4th grade in the University of Tokyo. 
I'm going to take part in GSoC 2019, and interested in Boost.Geometry
PROJECT2 -Â 
"Implement support for non-cartesin geometries in convex_hull()"Â 

I've already done a competency test, and writing a project proposal. 

[Competency test]Â 
https://github.com/rika77/boost

I'm seeking for a mentor for this project. 
I also have 1 technical question & 1 general:Â 

1. I'm afraid to ask, but what algorithm is currently used in convex_hull()?
I read algorithms/convex_hull.hpp carefully, but I couldn't find out. 

2. On GSoC GitHub page, there are 4 projects on Boost.Geometry, but are only
2 potential mentors. 
I guess that only 2 students are chosen, right?  I just want to make sure. 

Thanks, 
Rika
