[Insight-users] Itk and OpenCV

[Oleksandr Dzyubaka]

Hi Flo,

I am also interested in speeding filters up (muti-threading, clustering?).
My architecture is quite similar to yours: Linux/BSD with multi-CPUs.
And I am concerned about license issue. Correct me if I am wrong.
I thought OpenVM is a free open-source software with BSD style license.

It is not?

Thanks,
Alex
