 ## Unreleased
 
+### Added
+
+- `TriMesh` now implements `Shape::feature_normal_at_point` to retrieve the normal of a face, when passing a `FeatureId::Face`.
+
 ## v0.17.1
 
 ### Modified
 
 - Improve convergence of epa algorithm in degenerate configurations.
-- Fix bug in the esh/mesh intersection algorithm that didn’t properly take mesh transforms into account.
