 '''Overall Conclusions'''
 * All attendees want to use Slicer3 for visualization of new diffusion datatypes in future. They agree Slicer3 generic data model should enable plugins of new data for diffusion visualization. This will be very useful. Suggested approach is below in meeting notes.
-* All attendees agree vtkPolyData for fibers, and nrrd for volumes, are sufficiently generic to store all datatypes we can imagine.
+* All attendees agree vtkPolyData for fibers, and nrrd for volumes, are sufficiently generic to store all datatypes we can imagine and can remain the standard for NAMIC interoperability.
