Hmm, am I missing something or there is no AddPoint symbol in GEOS?

I grepped through all sources:

d:\geos\source>find . -type f -name *.cpp | xargs grep AddPoint

d:\geos\source>find . -type f -name *.h | xargs grep AddPoint


and I don't see any symbol named as AddPoint :-)

Strange.

I'm curious if there is any rationale to not to provide such function.

I believe too.
May be it's a good time to discuss it in details.
GEOS Team & Users: What do you think?
