Glad to hear it. It would be great to have good Videre STOC support in ROS
again.

That's sensible, just bear in mind that those are internal APIs likely to
change in the next major release. You can consider them stable for Boxturtle
& C-turtle though.
The problem is these latter methods are marked private, is there a chance we

Sure. I've made them public in trunk, r30561, so that will go out in the
next patch releases.
Cheers,
Patrick
