No, Ton is the Big Boss - I'm more of a medium boss :)

No it really is correct, me and rohith exchanged emails and chat
discussions, here is a direct quote from about a month ago,

the reason being that I did not find a usable sparse matrix implementation"

Anywho he is currently looking for a usable sparse matrix
implementation and has some bugs to fix.  However it is irrelevant,
since it still wouldn't be appropriate for the two tasks that the
student is interested in working on (which are much simpler cases).

Didn't miss it - I just have more direct knowledge of what is going on.

It is great that you wanted to help a student by providing papers, it
isn't so good that you are insisting that you are correct in an
insulting manner.

The use case is entirely different.  This is faster manual creation of
a retopology, things are very well constrained so heavy math lifting
doesn't need to be done to find what the contours of the mesh are in
order to best align the edge loops.
