7. Presentation/Curtis: who/what is fiji

   • LOCI philosophy is to be as interoperable as possible
   • What's the difference between Fiji and ImageJ2?
     • ImageJ2:
       • goal is to integrate: imageJ, Fiji, visbio, slim plotter, TRI2, FARSIGHT, ITK, CellProfilers
       • core image processing library for Fiji
       • BSD licensing
     • Fiji:
       • is a bundle of imageJ with some plugins/marcos/scripts included
       • Focus on segemtation & registration
       • additional tools to facility scripting, tutorial maker, updating
       • goal: "easy way to develop novel algorithms"
       • fully GPL
       • scripting with 7 languages (Jython, Java, Groovy, etc).
       • tutorial maker. google for: imagej+fiji
   • imglib as data model for imagej, need to add metadata/introspection
   • itk/improving wrapitk and its templates
   • Q: (Andrew) ImageJ2 splits gui & core...?
     • A: architectural separation, yes. But pointing most people at Fiji (more plugins)
   • Q: (Jason) Where should OME be paying attention/adopting/etc.?
     • A: lots of overlap (and reuse)
     • Lot of display stuff. Insight could leverage use that
     • Concerned: seems impossible to always take advantage of each other's work
     • There's the server- v. client- rendering issue
     • Then there's the client- v. server- scripting issue
     • We'll make them interoperable; but we have to keep re-assessing
   • Looking now v. waiting
     • Will mature, but don't want to do things in parallel
     • Read over the ImageJ blog presentation
     • Curtis will send out a more technical list
     • Reading through the trac tickets
   • Perhaps Fiji can present at Paris
     • Some sort of 'hackathon'/gathering event with Fiji/OMERO would be valuable
   • Q: (Donald) What are the next steps? Overlaps, etc.
     • Fiji has no aims page. Focused on automated segementation & registration
     • We should probably align our ROI models in anticiptation of cooperation
       • ImageJ ROI model has some deficiencies, would like to adopt the OMERO model
       • OMERO model needs some changes to meet multi-dimensionality requirements for ImageJ
   • Q: timeline for the AWT refactoring? (Chris)
     • ~ a year.

# Action Items # - Chris: See why Curtis' & Carlos' passwords aren't working - Curtis: Send out a techincal list of ImageJ/Fiji functionality that could be useful for OMERO - Everyone: Be ready for Thursday! Go through and move tickets to future if not doable in the next month
