Polygon used in new VPython

I'm glad to see that the Polygon package is now used by the popular VPython software to support the creation of the new extrusion objects.

The VPython authors even made a special license agreement that allows the use of GPC (and thus Polygon) free of charge for every purpose as part of the VPython distribution:

Polygon is being distributed subject to the following conditions: This distribution contains code from the GPC Library, and/or code resulting from the use of the GPC Library. This usage has been authorized by The University of Manchester, on the understanding that the GPC-related features are used only in the context of this distribution. It is not permitted to extract the GPC code from the distribution as the basis for commercial exploitation, unless a GPC Commercial Use Licence is obtained from The University of Manchester, contact: http://www.cs.man.ac.uk/~toby/gpc/
