Goals

The purpose of this meeting is to discuss development strategies to migrate Slicer to a new GUI layer. For some background see here.

Important questions to consider at this meeting are:

  • What functionality does the application need to have in order to accomplish the needs of our DBP and clinical collaborations over the next several years?
  • What look and feel should the application have?
  • What capabilities will help us build the community of developers and users
    • Standard tools - well supported with ample documentation, support, etc
    • Flexibility to run in many environments
    • Ease of use and productivity for developers
  • Can we get a realistic estimate of the workload required and what skills are required to do the work?
  • Are we comfortable that we have considered all the viable alternatives?
