[Insight-developers] Renaming the release from "ITK 1.10' to"ITK2.0"

[Hans Johnson]

My vote is for 1.10 also.  I agree with Jim's and Stephen's rationales, but
strongly agree with Julien's rational that a new release of the software
guide should accompany such a major change.  I would assume that the
software guide for version 1.2 is not relevant for version 2.0.

My vote - I agree with Jim on this.

Things for 2.0 might include
- Common API for transforms
	- Rigids derive from a common rigid tranform base, etc
- Common API for optimizers
	- SetMaximumIteration / SetNumberOfIterations ...
- Filters report their parameters for automatic wrapping

Julien also suggests that 2.0 would have a significantly new software 
guide...
