    I'd like to announce my project called Anti-Grain Geometry.
    http://www.antigrain.com

    Anti-Grain Geometry (AGG) is an Open Source, free of charge graphic
    library, written in industrially standard C++. The terms and conditions of
    use are very simple and described on the License page.

    AGG doesn't depend on any graphic API or technology. Basically, you can
    think
    of AGG as of a rendering engine that produces pixel images in memory from
    some vectorial data. But of course, AGG can do much more than that.
    The ideas and the philosophy of AGG are:

            - Anti-Aliasing.
            - Subpixel Accuracy.
            - The highest possible quality.
            - High performance.
            - Platform independence and compatibility.
            - Flexibility and extensibility.
            - Lightweight design.
            - Reliability and stability (including numerical stability).

    Below there are some key features (but not all of them):

            - Rendering of arbitrary polygons with Anti-Aliasing and Subpixel
               Accuracy.
            - Gradients and Gouraud Shading.
            - Fast filtered image affine transformations, including many
               interpolation filters (bilinear, bicubic, spline16,
               spline36, sinc, Blackman).
            - Strokes with different types of line joins and line caps.
            - Dashed line generator.
            - Markers, such as arrowheads/arrowtails.
            - Fast vectorial polygon clipping to a rectangle.
            - Low-level clipping to multiple rectangular regions.
            - Alpha-Masking.
            - A new, fast Anti-Alias line algorithm.
            - Using arbitrary images as line patterns.
            - Rendering in separate color channels.
            - Perspective and bilinear transformations of vector and image
               data.
            - Boolean polygon operations (and, or, xor, sub) based on Alan
               Murta's General Polygon Clipper.

    Anti-Grain Geometry contains many interactive Demo examples that are
    platform independent too, and use a simple platform_support class that
    currently has two implementations, for Win32 API and X11 (no Motiff, no
    other dependencies, just basic X11). One of the examples is an SVG Viewer.

    For more information look at http://www.antigrain.com : News, Screenshots,
    Demo, Documentation, Download.

    Currently I'm working on the documentation and new algorithms
