Perhaps we could all get together and post an entire geometric suite include both plane and spherical Voronoi diagrams, and why stop at planes and spheres? One of the things that is difficult in any language, but is now possible in Ada-95 is to easily change between geometric spaces. Such as switching smoothly between plane versus spherical trigonometry. Actually, we could also switch into discrete topologies, building tesselations of discrete spaces like braids, knots, etc.
