Hi all,

Thanks for your interest in the Geometry Library.

As noticed by Peter, the library is header-only, so there's nothing to
build and link to use it in your own programs. Just include the right
headers and follow the instructions.

To compile the examples (as well as the tests), you can use the
provided Jamfile. If you have bjam installed and your BOOST_ROOT is
correctly set, this should work:

bjam --v2 --toolset=gcc

As indicated on the main page, we successfully compiled the library
with GCC 3.4, 4.1 and 4.2.

Don't hesitate to ask for some more help. FYI, a preview 4 of the
library is coming soon.

Bruno
