Re: [Lib2geom-devel] Templates

Hi,
  I would have really liked to use 2geom in shoebot; the main reason we didn't is - that it is not installable off pypi + (last time I tried) doesn't work with virtualenv.

For users of projects it's important that 3rd party libraries are easy to install, + work on the 3 main OSs.

Numpy + Pillow have native parts but can install via pip, I'm sure lib2geom could too.
