[Insight-developers] github vs github

Hello Jim,

I have used it to share the code I am working on. You can see it here:
http://github.com/blowekamp/ITK/network

Previously, I posed on the list about improvement to the SliceBySliceImage filter. I used git hub to share the work I was doing. I have also referenced the work here:

http://www.itk.org/Wiki/ITK_Release_4/Migration_Plan/Phases/Coordination

By sharing this through git hub other people can download the branch, and look at it. After that they could even push it to the main repository after some changes. This is VERY powerful, as the correct SHA and revision history will travel between the repository. 

As a side note I do reserve the right to rebase the branches on my git hub, so please let me know if you are using them.
