[Ctk-developers] CTK support VTK trunk

[Stephen Aylward]

Perhaps during the initial development of a new toolkit it is useful to link
with the trunk of other toolkit that will be changed to support it.

I agree that as a toolkit matures it should then link with stable releases
instead.

Not certain if now is a good time to switch to linking with a stable VTK,
particularly given the synchronized changes being committed by Julien
Finet.  Note that use of VTK is optional.

Probably a good topic for the hackfest.
