I seem to have officially inherited the job of maintaining the GEOS language bindings from Sean :)
For those who don't know, GEOS is an open source C++ library that contains a lot of functionality for analyzing and manipulating geometries. It is also one of the key parts of PostGIS. Sandros and Mateusz have been doing a ton of refactoring and adding functionality in preparation for a Geos 3.0 release (no date yet determined).
Besides providing a C and C++ api, there are also Python and Ruby bindings (the Ruby bindings will be new with the upcoming 2.2.2 release). This is the bit I now maintain. So check it out, and any ideas/suggestions are welcome - send them to the geos-devel list.
Thanks to Sean, Sandro and Paul for setting this up.
