Hello,

Thanks for the excellent initiative and work done so far on this topic !
Reading the slides, it is *very* promising.
I particularly liked the part about the factories where legacy code will 
be gpu-enabled automatically.

One question hit my mind : will the framework support itk::VectorImage, 
and not only itk::Image ?
At least, will it have the possibility to be extended for this in the 
(hopefully near) future ?

Best regards,
Julien
