I have taken look at what is involved to do the sub-projects as there was interest from the Slicer developers. The main pre-requiesite issue that would need to be addressed is that vtk (ParaView) would require cmake-2.8, which is probably a matter for Berk or the ARB to decide (?), especially considering that we recently switched to requiring 2.6.3. <div>

</div>I will hopefully talk to Bill about this soon. It sounds like the build system<br>
changes would not be too invasive, and should be ignored by older CMake<br>
versions. I think this would really improve the quality of the results from<br>
CDash. I could tentatively volunteer, dependent on finding out how much time<br>
would be involved in this change.<br>
