Release of ImageJ 2.0.0-alpha1

ctrueden
Hi everyone,

Today the ImageJDev team has released an alpha of ImageJ2, version
2.0.0-alpha1.

This is an "alpha"-quality release, meaning the code is not finished, nor is
the design fully stabilized. We are releasing it for early community
feedback, and to demonstrate project directions and progress.

For this release, we have tried to model the application after ImageJ v1.x
as much as is reasonable. However, please be aware that ImageJ2 is
essentially a total rewrite of ImageJ from the ground up. It provides
backward compatibility with older versions of ImageJ by bundling the latest
v1.x code and translating between "legacy" and "modern" image structures.

USERS: PLEASE DO NOT USE THIS RELEASE FOR ANYTHING IMPORTANT. There are
many, many issues and limitations. You may want to wait until the first BETA
release to report bugs, as the code is still under very heavy development.

DEVELOPERS: We are particularly interested in any feedback you may have on
the design of the project. See the source code for details:
  http://imagejdev.org/source-code

You can download the release from:
  http://imagejdev.org/downloads

That page also has a table of planned future releases and roadmap links for
the project.

We would also like to thank the Fiji team for attending the recent
ImageJDev/Fiji hackathon in early February. For those interested, we have
posted a summary of the hackathon's results on the web site at:
  http://imagejdev.org/hackathon

Regards,
