Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: Drew Parsons <dparsons@debian.org>

* Package name    : python-dmsh
  Version         : 0.1.3
  Upstream Author : Nico Schlömer <nico.schloemer@gmail.com>
* URL             : https://github.com/nschloe/dmsh
* License         : MIT
  Programming Lang: Python
  Description     : simple mesh generator inspired by distmesh

 dmsh: "The worst mesh generator you'll ever use."
 
 Inspired by distmesh, dmsh is slow, requires a lot of memory, and
 isn't terribly robust either.
	    
 On the plus side, it's got a usable interface, is pure Python (and
 hence easily installable on any system), and if it works, it produces
 pretty high-quality meshes.
    
 Combined with optimesh, dmsh produces the highest-quality 2D meshes
 in the west.

 Example capabilities:
 * Primitives
   - circle, rectangle, polygon
   - halfspace
 * Combinations
   - difference
   - nonconstant edge length
   - union
   - intersection
 * Transformations
   - rotation, translation, scaling
 * Local refinement


A simple-to-use tool for creating 2D meshes. Complements mshr
(which is not actively developed)

To be packaged under the Debian Science team alongside other related
packages by the same author: meshio (mesh file conversion), pygalmesh
(3D meshes)

Some debate about source package name: dmsh? python-dmsh? python3-dmsh?
A quick poll on irc indicates some preference for python-dmsh. Further
debate welcome.
