<div dir="ltr">Hey gang,<div><br></div><div>We've started cleaning up the accumulated clutter that we call the VTK wiki page. With a collection of maybe twenty years' information up there we are suffering more from a proliferation than a scarcity of information. Our goal then is to streamline and improve the content to make it easier to find the important stuff and especially to get started using VTK.</div>
<div><br></div><div>As such we have or are about to:</div><div><div>* change the top level wiki page from:</div><div> <a href="http://www.vtk.org/Wiki/VTK/Deprecated_frontpage">http://www.vtk.org/Wiki/VTK/Deprecated_frontpage</a><br>
</div><div>to:</div><div> <a href="http://www.vtk.org/Wiki/VTK/VTK">http://www.vtk.org/Wiki/VTK/VTK</a><br></div></div><div><br></div><div>* remove or update old and often conflicting content (I'm looking at you FAQ!).</div>
<div><br></div><div>* switch to a ParaView style download form on the webpage, where you pick from drop down boxes what you want to download.<br></div><div><br></div><div>* Adhere to "one set of examples to rule them all" or "there can be only one set of examples". The in source VTK examples:</div>
<div> ${VTKSOURCE}/Examples</div><div>are being updated and will eventually move to the VTK Wiki examples project: </div><div> <a href="http://www.vtk.org/Wiki/VTK/Examples">http://www.vtk.org/Wiki/VTK/Examples</a></div>
<div>Regression test results for the wiki examples will move to the VTK dashboard where more developers will see them.</div><div><br></div><div>* the VTK web site will receive its own facelift in the coming months, like ParaView's recently did, for much the same reason.</div>
<div><br></div><div>If you have any concerns about any of this or have some spare time and would like to help update the documentation and example, please let us know. </div><div><br clear="all"><div>David E DeMarle<br>Kitware, Inc.<br>
