Good Day,

Our idea was not directly linked to your request. The enhancements we are wanting to do are more for general image usage via applets and then giving back to ImageJ without condition. We also wanted to give an avenue for open source developers to quickly and easily make changes that will benefit everyone (and stay public domain!).

I am not personally familiar with dicom x-ray images, but if it is popular enough it might be added to the codebase depending on who enters development.

Thanks,
Steve

Was this inspired by my request to have ImageJ enhanced. I have been
searching for someone to do this and now you are going to do it for free?

Good Day List,

We have an interest in furthering development of ImageJ and
concentrating on the following areas:

1.       Conversion into a light-weight applet,

2.       Simplifying the user interface,

3.       Making ImageJ more suitable for general usage as an image
viewer,

4.       Reorganizing the source tree for development optimization

5.       Integrating multi-platform scanning

We'd like to get as many other developers as possible involved to work
on these items and any other enhancements they would like to implement.

The idea is to use the current ImageJ source code as the base code for
all new development. The licensing for all code contributed will remain
as Public Domain. Last night a project called ImageJA was registered
with SourceForge. All feature enhancements made to ImageJA will be
submitted as enhancements to ImageJ. ImageJA will always remain a
derivative work of Wayne Rasband's ImageJ and all effort will be made to
preserve this reference.

The project is located at  <http://sourceforge.net/projects/imageja/>
http://sourceforge.net/projects/imageja/ and the main web site is at
<http://imageja.sf.net/> http://imageja.sf.net. The project also has two
mailing lists (one for users and one for development). We have already
imported the latest stable code into CVS.

We hope we can work together on enhancing the excellent code that has
been produced thus far.

Thanks,

Sarel Botha
