[Dune] Question about Dune-alugrid license

[Oliver Sander]

Do you mean this page: http://www.dune-project.org/doc/doxygen/dune-grid-html/group___u_g_grid.html ?

This is not really outdated, but it is not totally clean (to me) what 'hasEntity' actually means here.
UGGrid implements *most* entity functionality, but not all.  Hence codim-1 entities are marked as
'not supported' here.

Best,
Oliver
