== Upcoming ==
 
 
 
=== Slicer3.0 ===
 
 
 
* the first product release of Slicer3 is scheduled for the AHM in January of 2008
 
* there will be a code freeze on Nov. 15 2007
 
** if you want your module to be part of Slicer3.0 submit it by then
 
** After that date, we will only accept bug fixes. It means that there will be no features added after the freeze in the main trunk.
 
 
 
** Any people working on new features can do so in their own branch and they will be responsible for merging these back into the trunk after the freeze is lifted (at which point the release will be in a maintenance branch).
 
 
 
 
 
== Retrospective ==
 
 
 
=== Slicer 3 Snapshot Builds ===
 
 
 
* Initial releases began end of March 2007
 
** Base code functional and usable
 
** Several usable modules include (auto segmentaiton, editor, registration...)
 
** Image Guided Therapy example modules
 
* Updated versions summer 2007
 
** With DTI and other application modules
 
** Bug fixes and performance enhancements
 
 
 
=== Migration Tutorials (from Slicer 2.x to 3.0)  ===
 
 
 
The first set of user tutorials will be released in Fall 2007.
 
Slicer3 programming courses will be released in January 2008.
 
 
 
== Past ==
 
 
 
=== Slicer3.0 Beta ===
 
 
 
* Official release at [[AHM_2007 | AHM January 2007]]
 
 
 
=== April 3, 2006 ===
 
 
 
There was a [[Slicer3:_Alpha1_Meeting|Slicer3 Alpha1 Design Review]] meeting.
 
 
 
'''[[Slicer3:Alpha|Definition of Alpha Milestone]]'''
 
 
 
=== Slicer3 Alpha2/Beta1 by End of July 2006 ===
 
 
 
* Initial Testing with Core 3 participation
 
* Base functionality in place, but still subject to API changes and other improvements.
 
* Packaged versions not yet available, but testers are able to easily build their own versions.
