[Insight-developers] Mailing List

Thu Sep 2 12:16:19 EDT 2010

Luis-

Thanks for thinking about this issue and responding.  I completely
understand the preference to keep to a single list and facilitate
adoption. 

I just want to make sure that when I am searching back for relevant
information, that it is still relevant.  While ITKv4 is simply the next
release, there may be significant changes (if I understand some of the
goals of v4).  Accordingly, I want to be sure that people are getting
the right information.  One thought, for example, may be that every
Insight-Journal submission should explicitly state which version(s) of
ITK was used for development/testing. Of course, that could be
determined by looking at the full submission code, but that does require
more work.  Another idea is as you suggest - putting ITKv4 in the
subject line.  I like that because I can sort the emails quickly myself;
however, I can see how that may annoy many of the folks submitting to
the list.

In the end, the list is proceeding as it should, so perhaps there is no
reason to mess with it.

Thanks for your time

Hi David,

Would it help if we put "ITKv4" in the subject of messages ?

I would rather not split the list into two, since that's an invitation
to isolate ITKv4 from ITK 3 and would slow down adoption and
understanding of ITKv4.

ITK users and developers should be informed about the design 
and implementation decisions of ITKv4, and should get involved
in shaping the process.

At the end,
ITKv4 is simply the next release of ITK...

   Luis

Colleagues-

I just thought I'd comment on the recent activity on the developers
mailing list.  Although I don't post very often, I do keep an eye on the
mailing list to keep up to date and look for new insight journal
articles.

With the recent funding of ITK-v4, the developers list has now become a
mailing list for two distinct activities - (1) developer "support" of
ITKv3 and IJ submissions relating to ITKv3 and (2) discussion on the new
ITKv4 architecture and related activities (GDCM/SimpleITK/etc).  While I
am incredibly interested in both topics, I am not sure that mixing them
is the best idea.  It will be more difficult to search for relevant
information for either v3 or v4.

Perhaps you have already had this discussion and it is more efficient to
keep them as one, but I just thought I'd add my two cents.  From what I
have seen, ITKv4 will be a very nice update.

Thanks

david
