[Inkscape-devel] Bezier mathematicians anyone ?

So, this is a callout to anyone who is familiar with the mathematics of beziers, I need your help, generally, but also specifically. Generally, if you would be willing to volunteer as someone I can consult with on bezier math, that would be great, give me a shout. Specifically, I want to write a method that outputs a list of equally spaced points along a bezier BUT, I don't mean equally spaced t-values for the bezier -- I can already do this -- I mean points that are of equal distance along the bezier. I'm almost certain the two are distinct. Any suggestions ? A lot of potential functionality for path effects seem to rest on this ability.
