[ome-devel] ROI Meeting

[Jason Swedlow]

Hi all-

My own view is that harmonization of the ROI data model across these projects is critical, and a major priority for all. We should do whatever we need to to make this happen. The downstream pay-off for all our projects is very high. The penalties for not sorting this will be very high.   

Is there a way to standardise the specification, like we already do with OME-XML, and license the implementations according to our respective preferences?  If that is too hard, can we agree on some code which is shared, and that is licensed so that's compatible with all?  There will invariably lots of implementation-specific stuff. 

Cheers,

Jason

Hi

The discussion on the ROI Meeting:

The ROI model is changing too often. It will have to change to cover  
3D, NDIM and maybe we should try to add these sooner rather than  
later. Curtis mentioned that Bioformats will be working with NDIM data  
soon, maybe we should look at their solution?
Curtis and the imageJ group are looking to develop ROI tools, possibly  
using Hotdraw/JHotdraw maybe there could be a collaboration, sharing  
of code between groups. The only problem with this might be licensing.
When do we wish to do this?

Regards

D.
