Hi Tobias, I agree that this is an interesting potential direction for the NURBS tools in Blender. For now I think it is important to get the 'static' tools in place first, and to worry about dynamic modifiers once the toolset is mature. Sergey and Laurynas and myself are all looking at different

To take it one step further, it would be ultimately a good idea (although not immediately) to have a modifier system for the construction of complex NURBS structures. I haven't looked at the modifier system at all to know how feasible this is, but if someone wanted to take a look, I would be happy

I'm currently playing catchup with all the 2.5 changes, but I think I'm nearly there. After that I plan to work on getting a basic set of essential tools integrated/written. This stage is a bit vague, as the 'minimum' set of tools could be quite small or quite large depending on who you talk to.

I have also been using the CMake files with MSVC for the past year or so in Debug and Release. It takes a bit of tweaking, but so do most build systems. I also think scons is fantastic for getting a build up quickly and simply, but as many people have pointed out project files are great for develo
