Benoit Jacob 6347b1db5b remove sentence "Eigen itself is part of the KDE project."
it never made very precise sense. but now does it still make any?

/** \class Eval
*
* \brief Evaluation of an expression
*
* The template parameter Expression is the type of the expression that we are evaluating.
*
* This class is the return
* type of MatrixBase::eval() and most of the time this is the only way it
* is used.
*
* However, if you want to write a function returning an evaluation of an expression, you
* will need to use this class.
*
* Here is an example illustrating this:
* \include class_Eval.cpp
* Output: \verbinclude class_Eval.out
*
* \sa MatrixBase::eval()

/** Evaluates *this, which can be any expression, and returns the obtained matrix.
*
* A common use case for this is the following. In an expression-templates library
* like Eigen, the coefficients of an expression are only computed as they are
* accessed, they are not computed when the expression itself is constructed. This is
* usually a good thing, as this "lazy evaluation" improves performance, but can also
* in certain cases lead to wrong results and/or to redundant computations. In such
* cases, one can restore the classical immediate-evaluation behavior by calling eval().
*
* Example: \include MatrixBase_eval.cpp
