[MINC-development] minc 2.2.00

[Leila Baghdadi]

Hi andrew,

I have been wanting a minc2 only release since the day we finished minc2 development,
please count me in as one of the helpers for this, its always fun to do minc2 development even if it means I have to do it at home with my kids screaming in the background ;)

thanks again for all your efforts

Leila

Indeed.  See:

   https://github.com/BIC-MNI/libminc

For a sneak-peak.  It's not complete yet. The CMake build should be
good, the autoconf/make one needs work still.

Correct.

We want a MINC2 only build (via a build configuration option) for
linking with ITK. ITK should also be able to read MINC xfms + tags as
per the current MINC-ITK interfaces. volume_io requires netcdf, but
the xfm+tags bits don't. Thus it makes sense to shift the xfm + tag
readers from volume_io into minc2.

And yes if you turn off the minc2 only build option you will still get
everything just as before.
