As i transitioned to Blender 2.5 i found it hard that the NormalSmooth-Script was no longer available. So i searched for a solution and came up with my own script. It still has some minor issues (results are not perfect), but together with relax it can already do the job very well.
An Example
The testcase is a simple sphere where i dragged some vertices inward.
The script can be called with the “W”-Menu in editmode and works on the selected vertices.
It is possible to customize the number of iterations and its strength. (Sliders have some issues. Don’t know if its my fault or Blender’s. Feedback is welcome. In any case u can enter the values directly.)
As you might have seen, the result does not look very satisfying. But if you look at it from the side, you will see that it is close to what i want to achive and will fix later on.
This is where the relax Script (mostly bundled with Blender already) comes in. Pleasing result?
Feedback
Any kind of feedback is welcome. Also take a look at the code, since im very new to python and think that i made some things far more complicated as they need to be.

Nice work. While some development is still needed of course, I think this tool is already useful as it is.
