I'd like to do something organized on the public day of presentations. 
Boston is one of the centers of the universe when it comes to imaging so 
let's do it right. What I propose is to organize the day according to the 
objective of introducing the public to ITK. That means we present as a 
unified consortium, not six different groups all doing their own thing. So 
here's a tentative organization:

+ Introduction
         Goals, objectives, team, relationship ot VHP
         Validation

+ Overview
         Architecture, major design decisions, major subsections
         Use of templates/generic programming

+ Environment
         CMake, DART, Cable

+ Core
         memory management (smart pointers, object factories, etc.)
         events (command/observer)
         Image Processing (Image, iterators, etc.)
         Mesh
         Data flow
         Image IO

+ Registration
         various algorithms and results

+ Segmentation
         various algorithms and results

+ Future
         Beta Survey Results
         WA5 Actions
         Upcoming releases, etc.

We could have members of the different groups give one or more 
presentations in the appropriate spot(s). We could do all of this in under 
3 hours so it could be a morning session. Also, I'd like to market the 
presentation. How big is the room we will be in? Can we invite people? How 
many people? We talked about having a reception to talk to folks, has that 
been set up?

On the next day I'd like to talk about a June-end beta2 release. I'd also 
like to coordinate the WA5 efforts.
