Curtis, I don't have any immediate ideas or questions.  However, as (mainly) an ImageJ end user, I just want to celebrate your success on funding.  The NIH has chosen to support something truly worthy.   The money they have chosen to invest will pay back many-fold, both to the scientific community and to society as a whole.   We are witnessing the best fruits of the open source concept, and I salute you and your many excellent collaborators for making it happen.  I sort of feel sorry for the vendors of commercial software.  But not so much.
