Hi Christophe,

Thanks for your response.  I am rebuilding the stable source with
Tetgen right now.

Just for my understanding, both Netgen and Tetgen produce a Delaunay
tetrahedralization?  In my finite volume code, do I need to look out
for elements where the Delaunay condition is not met?

Thanks,

Juan
