Great, I really appreciate this. Thank you.
I plan to contribute three packages. I hope, the naming scheme is correct:
limereg: Commandline application for image registration (available)
liblimereg: Shared object library for image registration (in development)
liblimereg-dev: Headers etc. for development (in development)
Then I plan to integrate liblimereg to more common software like Imagemagick, maye OpenCV (if I'll be allowed to - by the package owners and by my family - well, in fact my wife, who doesn't like me sitting at the laptop all the time ;).
I'm not sure which maintainer team would be better suited. It is meant for practical (!) application in all areas, from science over industrial automation up to end users. For medical image registration, however, it might be less suitable in many cases, because it is based on a very fast approach (ssd distance measure and linear interpolation), and in a medical setup usually more sophisticated (and probably more time consuming) approaches with a higher accuracy are used. I'm not sure if I will add these other algorithms (like ngf, spline ...) later. Well, maybe I will sometimes, because I'm working for a big medical device vendor in my daylight-life and just love this working field :)
Anyway, I need a sponsor, if this shall become part of Debian.
Regards,
Roelof
