[IGSTK-Users] plans for the flockofbirds refactoring?

[Patrick Cheng]

Hi Sebastian,

This is great! As we would like to add the support to FlockOfBird 
tracker as much as you do, it kinda fall under other tasks with higher 
priorities.

To get started, you need to get access to IGSTKSandbox cvs repository.
Please fill the form:

Andinet can help you with the design (He is the one lead the refactoring 
of tracker classes), and we do have a tracker here in Georgetown so we 
can help test the code.

BTW: Is your code based on the old FlockOfBirdTracker code in IGSTK, or 
you wrote your own classes?

Thank you,

Patrick
