[Insight-developers] Slicer4 and ITK4: An Experiment

[Hans Johnson]

Bill,

There is a large contingency of programmers in NAMIC who are interested in
completely rewriting DicomToNrrdConverter because it has gotten evolved into
an un-maintainable product.  As part of this effort, we have identified that
much of the problems are due to work-arounds that are necessary because of
gdcm1 that will likely not be necessary in gdcm2.

We will be meeting in Utah to discuss how to best attack this problem.

We'd be very happy to have you comment on these projects.


Hans
