Whilst in the process of fixing the mincstats bug (patch to follow shortly) I
noted that my CVS repo if MINC was waaay out of date and updated.

I note the build process has been revamped again (Master Robbins no doubt :),
for a while now building minc has required automake/autoconf et al and
subsequently perl.

Now correct me if I am wrong, but one of peter's inital musings as to why
certain extras should never make it into the base minc distro was because they
required perl! :)   (enter stage right mincpik and minchistory)

So I'll take it this restriction is now a thing of the past! that being the case
what are the conditions that are going to be needed to be met to 'allow' a new
addittion to the base MINC stable?  Previously this sort of fell upon peter,
him being the MINC grand-poo-bar and all that.

A vote?  anarchy?


And while I'm on my soapbox, 3 other minor things:

  * Can someone (stever?) please remove the extra cvsroot directory!
     I know it causes no problems apart from RSI and Carpal Tunnel.

  * Can we remove mincexample{1,2} from the base install/build or
     shove them in a separate ./dev/ directory? Considering the
     executables appear to be now built in ./

  * I'm the first to admit I don't indent (code) as others do. I'm
     also the first to admit that the indenting in both minccalc and
     mincstats is pretty ugly. So is it possible that we can define
     a default indenting style for all MINC code before it is submitted?
    I have attached my own .indent.pro file that I attempt to use for
     most of my other CVS code /s/s/minc_dev but sadly I didn't use
     indent on the mincstats, minccalc as I just mailed the initial
     hacks to peter and he included them.

     (although apparently jason does the same as I do with closing braces)

(The other perl attachemnt - myindent - is what I use to make closing
  braces behave as I like, I am only suggesting we adopt something like
.indent.pro, not myindent!)
