Bill,<br><br>This revision of VTK/CMakeLists.txt was the first commit to the VTK-5-0 branch:<br> revision 1.341.2.1<br> date: 2005-09-01 16:49:44 +0000; author: david.cole; state: Exp; lines: +2 -2<br> ENH: Update version numbers in the VTK-5-0 branch to 5.0.<br>
<br>Sept. 1, 2005 was the first VTK-5-0 commit activity after the branch creation.<br><br>For the purpose of running your script on VTK, I would say changes since then in CVS HEAD are "new in VTK 5.2" -- feel free to run your script and post the results to the Wiki -- I would *love* that! Don't be surprised if it takes a while...<br>
<br>As to why we aren't calling it VTK 6.0, I haven't really personally given it much thought. The automatic rollover to the next even minor number seems good to me. Proclaiming it "6.0" sounds like a reasonable idea, although for people buying the books, it might be more "warm/fuzzy" to have a VTK 5 book and a 5.2 software install vs. a 5 book and a 6 software install...<br>
<br>Anybody else have a strong opinion either way on the 5.2/6.0 thought?<br><br><br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">On 1/29/08, <b class="gmail_sendername">Bill Lorensen</b> <<a href="mailto:bill.lorensen@gmail.com">bill.lorensen@gmail.com</a>> wrote:</span><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">
David,<br><br>I have a script that we run on itk to generate a wiki-compatible list of new classes, tests etc.I also have a script that generates a wiki-compatible list of changes. Both take a start and end date as an argument. They are unix shell scripts with two small gawk programs,<br>
<br>The itk list looks like this: <a href="http://www.itk.org/Wiki/ITK_Release_3.4" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)">http://www.itk.org/Wiki/ITK_Release_3.4</a><br><br>If you want, I can add links to the vtk equivalents on the VTK release page on the vtk wiki.<br>
<br>What date do you consider VTK5.2 started? Looking at the repository I think September 8, 2005 may be the date just after VTK5.0.<br><br>One last comment. Is there a reason that this release is not called 6.0? It seems that with over 300 new classes and 40 removed classes that this release is more than an upgrade from VTK5.0.<br>
