Hi Sebastian,

Please keep the discussion to the igstk-users mailing list ( CC your

so that others can learn from and contribute to our discussion.

Great! When you post issues in the future, please try to provide us all 
the details so that
we can troubleshoot your problems as fast as possible.

Great! Once the classes compile, feel free to commit them to the 
Sandbox. You don't need to wait till
the implementation is fully completed. The earlier we look at the code, 
the earlier we can give you
feedbacks.

Let us know if you have specific questions. Most of the tracker 
refactoring discussion can be found in the following
Wiki pages

You can remove those features that don't apply to the Ascension 
trackers. Not all trackers share the same features. For example,
if you take a look at the MicronTracker implementation, you will see 
MicronTracker-specific feature implementation.

Similar to the NDI trackers, you might want to create Ascension Tracker 
superclass and derive FlockOfBirds, mini, micro
bird trackers from it if they share the same API.
