[Source] Xj3D Development of nurbs component

Wed Jul 11 00:18:14 PDT 2012

Dear All,

I was in touch with the main developer of the jgeom library, I will ask 
him if LGPL could be OK for him.

Best regards.

3. I replaced the net.jgeom jar file with the source code provided by 
Christophe Mouton, this later version includes java classes which 
tesselate NURBS and trimmed NURBS surfaces. I also had to include the vtk 
(Visualization Toolkit, see http://www.vtk.org/ ) since it is imported 
into some (currently unused) classes in  the net.jgeom library

D lib/jgeom-core.jar
A src/java/net
A lib/vtk.jar

Please be careful around the jgeom library.  The only headers I've seen 
for the project have this license on it:

GPL is not compatible with Xj3D a general purpose toolkit using LGPL.  I 
realize the project is really dead but I'd want some proof that jgeom is 
licensed in compatible terms.  I also feel like I've seen Apache licenses 
on some of those files as well so hopefully I'm wrong about its licensing.

I got the license from this link(CurveCreator.java):
