Short term
==========
Sort awkward use of 'offset'
Replace float with uchar for material.
Mesh smoothing (surface nets?)
Mesh filters/modifiers - A 'translate' modifier?
For Version 1.0
===============
Implement Memory Pool
Clean up normal code - make normal generation a seperate pass.
Implement mesh smoothing.
Refine interface to mesh generateion - flags structure?
Refine interface to volumes and iterators.
Implement block volume tidy() funtion.
Remove hard-coded region size.
Seperate namespaces - PolyVoxCore, PolyVoxUtil, PolyVoxImpl
Move getChangedRegionGeometry() out of PolyVon and into Thermite?
Remove/refactor IndexedSurfacePatch? Incorporate into RegionGeometry?
Change vertex format to ints?
Check licensing, #regions, etc.
Decimated version of marching cubes should use less memory.
Unit test - compare output to reference implementation
Sort awkward use of 'offset' in decimated marching cubes.
Use of LinearVolume instead of arrays.
Add API docs
Add manual
Finish OpenGL sample.
VolumeChangeTracker can be more conservitive regarding when neighbouring regions are modified.
For Version 2.0
===============
Detect detatched regions.
Handle mesh generation for detatched regions.
Generate ambient lighting from volume?
Utility function for closing outside surfaces?
Consider how seperate surface should be generated for a single region.
Consider transparent materials like glass.
Allow writing meshes into volumes?
Documentation
=============
Define the following terms:
-Voxel
-Cell
-Volume
-Region
-Block
Packaging
=========
Create components for the NSIS installer (Library, bindings, examples, documentation) - Half done
Add License
Add images for installer (and icons)
Set LZMA compression
Find a way to include both debug and release builds?
The .lib files should be part of the 'development' configuration?
