Hi Peter,
> Is there a plan to release version 1.11?
A new version of the Stitching plugin will be uploaded tomorrow as part of
the "Big Upload"; see:
https://list.nih.gov/cgi-bin/wa.exe?A2=IMAGEJ;a9147af3.1412> Is there a development schedule for this plugin?
There is no formal roadmap, though there is typically a rapid turnaround on
releases after bugs are fixed.
> Where can the source code of 1.1 be found?
It is in the Git history, of course. Unfortunately, the version embedded in
the source code has diverged from the version embedded in the Maven POM. We
will need to reconcile this.
For now, the way to find the right source is:
- Unpack the JAR file in question.
- Look at the Implementation-Build entry in META-INF/MANIFEST.MF.
In the case of the Stitching plugin currently shipped with Fiji, the
revision is:
e6f18ad79afdd542db8030291a1dfc73e6ba130e
So the source is at:
https://github.com/fiji/Stitching/commit/e6f18ad79afdd542db8030291a1dfc73e6ba130eRegards,
Curtis
