Thanks a lot Jerome for the great work you've achieved with this
version 2.
Among the main improvements you've worked on, I think the ability to
process efficiently tiled mega-images is a feature that was expected by
many users, as well as the new i/o streaming.
More subtle changes improve the library efficiency and flexibility.
Again, congratulations for this v2!
Here is the roadmap for OpenJPEG that I propose for the next month.
1) Release of v1.3.1, stable version of OpenJPEG. To do this, we should
investigate the problems with MAC OSX that have recently discovered by
Michael Cayanan.
2) At the same time, discussion through this mailing list about the
major changes to V2. As Jerome pointed out in his email, the library
interface still needs to be slightly changed in order to ease in the
future the implementation of new options. During this period, we won't
create a new branch for V2. Let's give some time to all of you to test
version 2 and give us suggestions about MAJOR changes. We're not
expecting any patches to solve potential bugs at this stage.
3) Once release 1.3.1 is released, we'll put V2 on the SVN, and start
implementing the changes / collecting patches discussed during the
previous period.
This process might seem slow, but there is a good reason to this: for
the next month, the team at UCL managing the library will be quite busy
on other projects (like myself finishing my PhD). Everything will come
back to normal in July/September. So let's do things nice and slow, in
order to keep the project on track.
Antonin Descampe and Parvatha Elangovan at UCL are the two persons that
will follow the OpenJPEG project for the next months, while I'll be
working in my igloo somewhere near the North Pole. Thanks guys, I'll
send you postcards.
Enjoy Version 2 !
Cheers,
François-Olivier
