Ok, I have worked futher through the paper. I have a version with 3 sides
and degree 3 working now and could provide higher degrees but I don't think
this would be useful (or?). I used formulas 3.1-3.5 for m=3. I am not sure
about the 'normalisation property' (2.5). As far as I see my current
implementation does not hold this. (what will this have for consequences?)
I have added support for generating smooth triangles. I think this shape
could be used for subdividing smooth triangles. Can you tell me what the
conditions are for joining triangluar patches smootly?
Please test the macros and try to join some patchs smootly.
