Open Questions

  • Is it realistic to try for SimpleITK in this release? (After discussion: no, needs more testing - aim for summer project week)
    • Yes, if somebody can help with ITK 4 on windows.
    • linux packaging issue:
      • (2) itkXXX.so files are missing in the Slicer package.
    • linux discovering CLI:
      • (1) missing symbol on exit of CLI; in addition with a Qt bug, it fails to parse the CLI XML description
    • possibly other issues on window (needs testing)
      • (3) Building SWIG for SimpleITK is the problem.
    • need to try all the packaging platforms
      • packaging has never been tried on mac (J2 didn't try to compile on Mac neither)
      • packaging has never been tried on windows (because it doesn't compile)
