Roadmap

address failing tests determine relevance to ITK before addressing

address warnings mainly the sizeof(4) to sizeof(8) transition in 32 to 64 bits)

what Is needed to use protocol in ITK? gdcmCompositeNetworkFunctions (briefly)

what Is needed to use streaming in ITK? gdcmStreamImageReader (briefly)

what Is needed to use RT-STRUCT in ITK Some kind of mesh interaction, RTStructSet writer function

what are our main use cases (cannot address all dicom) What functions must be present

what would be the higher level API that could encapsulate gdcm/dcmtk Mathieu's ITKDICOM, or something else
