2015 Winter Project Week Infrastructure Breakout

Updating Teem release

• Hans has merged the changes in Teem1.11.1 branch with his change and resolved a bunch of CMake issues git
• Results are in this Dashboard
• Talk to Gordon to bring those changes into Teem trunk and make a new branch (Teem 1.11.2?)

Python Modules and Python Slicer

• Can Slicer use a python distribution like Anaconda instead of building its own python?
  • Packages supported by Anaconda

• Discussion
  • We agree that Anaconda is a viable long term solution . Need to test this and package slicer

• Roadmap
  • Build Slicer with miniAnaconda
    • Set variables in External_python to point to your Anaconda install.
    • Install numpy, scipy, pygithub… (get from build)
    • Build with VS13, OSX clang
  • Create packages
    • make package
    • Look at install portion of Slicer python to bring anaconda (ExternalPython.cmake)
    • Test if conda works on the package version of python

Extension and third party libraries

• Policy to use third party libraries like OpenCV with Extensions. Should they be part of Slicer main dependencies?
