[Insight-developers] Module dependency graph

[Arnaud GELAS]

This graph represents the header dependency, right?

What about the module dependency, do you have such a graph?

I think it is definitively possible to generate such a graph at cmake 
time, and it could be added to the doxygen documentation into a new page 
into the related pages which could be called "modularization" which 
would point to the wiki information about modularization, or document 
the principles, goals, etc...
Would it be possible to make such a page?
