= Near-term schedule (Dec 10th-ish) =
== vtkWidgets ==
* http://wiki.na-mic.org/Wiki/index.php/WidgetDesign2010
== Factory Machine ==
* Setup factory machine
** Being delivered by Jim on Friday
* Install virtual machines
* Backup
* SSH access for Steve
* CDash@Home Clients
== Dashboard Update ==
* Goal: Provide module-specific feedback
** Per Module build, test, coverage, memory, style reports
** See http://my.cdash.org/index.php?project=CTK
** High-risk for Dec 10th
== Testing ==
* Single webpage for MIDAS data upload
* MIDAS hosts testing data
** Demo on BrainsFIT data
== Packaging ==
* clean uninstall

== Documentation ==
* Update wikis
= Future (Wish-List) =
== Workflows and Widgets ==
* External modules in workflows and widgets
** Interactive segmentation algorithms are key
== Documentation ==
* Searchable index for external modules and their documentation from within Slicer
* Documentation generated per module
== Packaging ==
* Mac build as a real Mac application instead of as a Linux style bin/lib pair of directories thrown into a tarball.
** Follow ParaView example
* Windows dlls into one dir
* User and developer packages
== Promote extension development ==
=== Simplify testing ===
* GUI Testing
* Establish system (with man-in-the-middle) for developers to send modules to factory machines
** Use my.cdash.org for projects to be grouped with Slicer
** Developer initiates continuous builds of git branches and gets branch-specific dashboards
=== Verify modules prior to moving into Slicer ===
* Fetch modules from NITRC for nightly building
* Round-robin or build-when-changes schemes for CDash
=== Support distribution of modules ===
* Fetch build results (execs and dlls) from <em>blessed</em> dashboard machines
** Package for Linux?

== Batch Processing (optional) ==
* BatchMake with Slicer via WebKit
* Simplify Condor installation
* MIDAS hosts testing results (covalic)
* Scripting Slicer GUI (record and playback -> Batch processing)
* Kill/monitor threads spawned by processes / CLI
== GPU ==
* Volume rendering
* GPU Algorithms
* Simultaneous GPU algorithms and volume rendering
== IO ==
* MIDAScpp as an ITK IO Method
