Notes
- Slicer Extensions
- Reuse Statistics functionalities from MIDAS to report on downloads from
- http://ext.slicer.org/ext/trunk/
- Building Slicer extensions and submit them to the Slicer Dashboard
- Where are they located ? (it is described in the .s3ext files:)
- Maybe build them only when their source code is actually modified ?
- Label extensions by a level of compliance with NAMIC practices ?
- E.g. Gold, Silver, Bronze,... Coal.
- Gold: have > 80% coverage, 0 Valgrind errors, documentation and tutorial
- Silver: have > 70% coverage, < 10 Valgrind errors, and tutorial
- Bronze: have > 60% coverage, < 50 Valgrind errors, and tutorial
- Coal: have < 10% coverage, > 1000 Valgrind errors, no documentation, no tutorial
- E.g. Gold, Silver, Bronze,... Coal.
- Web of trust
- Have gatekeepers who review the extension and label them accordingly.
- Define a Testing procedure for Slicer 4.0. (Check lists)
- Community Support
- Provide User Ratings (based on the Insight Journal / MIDAS functionality)
- Use current MIDAS C++ API to Upload/Download data.
- Create MIDAS Plugins to manage data / code for Slicer extensions
- Slicer Release 3.6
- VTK Release 5.6 : March 26th 2010
- Immediately after, switching Slicer to use VTK 5.6.
- Sorting out KWWidget issues on Windows 7 with VTK 5.6 (VTK CVS HEAD).
- Slicer Release 4.0
- Git: Conversion of CMake, VTK, Paraview
- Moving Slicer to Git ?
- ITK 4.0 will move to a clean Git repository (full reset of the history)
- Moving only Slicer modules that satisfy the Gold criteria.
- A2D2 Idea : port CLI modules to ITK 4.0
- Question about CLI modules in CTK for Slicer 4.0: Discovery process; making it cleaner by using Qt methods. But raise the concern of forcing a dependency on Qt (that not everybody may want).
- Have specific mechanisms of discovery based on : Python, Qt, C++.
- MRML Refactoring ?
- Jim suggests to add a dictionary-like organization to be able to query MRML nodes {by type,...}.
- Slicer Superbuild
- Dave reported on progress
- Dealing with patches that getbuildtest.tcl applies to the third party libraries.
- Difficulty of applying patches. Need for a multi-platform way of applying patches
- Hosting git repositories with the patched versions of the third party libraries.
- Use github ? create a "Slicer" user-account ?
- CMake-ifying Python source tree ?
- Dealing with patches that getbuildtest.tcl applies to the third party libraries.
- Dave reported on progress
- Testing Modules and Extensions
- Hosting them in MIDAS
- Setting up Dashboard configuration to test modules as Slicer sub-projects
- Some CDash/CTest work is needed.
- Currently, sub-projects must be run from a common CTest script (the same of the host project).
- Needs to manage dependencies between extensions. (this can be done today with an XML file on CDash).
- Testing Submission Grouping
- Grouping {configure/build/test} submissions by Library and / or subdirectory
- Using CMake for generating labels that can be used later for grouping
