Hi all,</div>
<div style="font-family:Calibri,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:12pt;color:rgb(0,0,0)">

</div>
<div style="font-family:Calibri,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:12pt;color:rgb(0,0,0)">
I have some code that computes alpha complexes of a point cloud , and I think it would be a good contribution to the scipy.spatial library. I've looked around and there aren't any other implementations of an alpha complex construction (besides a short tutorial
 from PyPlot).</div>
<div style="font-family:Calibri,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:12pt;color:rgb(0,0,0)">
<br>
</div>
<div style="font-family:Calibri,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:12pt;color:rgb(0,0,0)">
My question is: would this contribution be welcome? I need to formalize the documentation, and add the construction for weighted alpha complexes, but otherwise everything's there.</div>

Best,</div>
