(other interested parties are welcome!)

Review the state of the art in medical imaging web apps
- Follow on from the MIWS Hackfest at BWH.
- Discuss subsequent developments and ideas
Consider various use cases:
- Pure web browser application
- Web browser + remote compute or rendering services
- Web App widgets used in desktop application (e.g. via QtWebKit/QtWebEngine in Slicer/MITK/MeVis)
Topics
- Native JavaScript code for DICOM IO, Rendering, Processing
- Organization of toolkits and libraries
- Interacting with the community of like-minded developers

Discuss recent developments cited in the Objective section
Identify more valuable development priorities
- provide useful functionality (e.g. improved DICOM patient/study/series/search browser)
- probe any outstanding issues (e.g. test scalability or performance questions)
- establish paradigms for ongoing development
Finalize a prototype showing JS-C++ interaction replacing the CTK DICOM Browser Widget with a web-technology based implementation

Investigate emerging file distribution tools
- infinit
- ipfs
  - ipfs ls QmYDwWrSPnYeE1z1Ae3me9XzT394YKy4ux5e85V4oCDakT
  - Brainlab demo objects QmTftaDyQCNFsceFwR2kkRMdz5VBbCzzD64VVEWiKRA2Go
Experimental integration of ipfs-hosted data with CTest based continuous integration (WIP) https://github.com/QIICR/dcmqi/pull/22
Identified zerorpc as a powerful solution for distributed MIC apps (based on ØMQ and MessagePack).
- Use msgpack-numpy to support ndarrays in zerorpc (implemented via monkey-patching).
The JS-C++ interaction lives now on an experimental branch in CTK (will move to the commontk organization soon)
- various mechanisms for development, debug and deployment can be tested,
  - Qt resource compiler
  - separate HTML files
  - running the UI in a browser vs integrated in the CTK application, remote debugging of javascript (all accessible through buttons in the UI)
