<h3>Objective</h3>

Annotation Imaging and Markup is a format that can be used to organized various annotation information derived from the imaging data and save it in a consistent XML-based way. The library has originally been developed on Windows platform. It has not been compiled on other computing platform. Currently, this code has been modified to be independent from Windows specific elements. The library can be complied on Ubuntu. But, it must be on a particular path. Eventually, we would like to have the library for cross-platform by integrating it with CMake.

We are looking for Make and CMake expertise to help us with this porting task.
