[vtkusers] ChomboVis and VTK 4.x...

[Terry J. Ligocki]

Tom,

You, and several others, make some very valid points about ChomboVis 
using VTK 3.2 and not VTK 4.x.  See my previous e-mail for some 
additional details pertaining to this topic.  I am passing this entire 
discussion onto our development team so that it can be weighed with our 
other priorities - it is definitely good to see and participate in this 
discussion.

Also, please let us know if we can work with you in some way to help you 
take advantage of any of the ChomboVis tools and we will do what we can 
to help - this, of course, applies to anyone who is interested in using 
ChomboVis to do AMR data analysis and visualization...
