Slicer 5.0 release schedule

The plan is to release Slicer 5.0 shortly after the 33rd Project Week

We updated the Slicer roadmap adding a new section called Slicer 5.2: Backward incompatible changes and retargeted some of the low priority tasks.

During the project week, we plan on:

• discussing how to improve the MRML Copy API and hopefully make good progress
• implementing the following changes:
  • Update default Coordinate system in STL files
  • Update default for Acquisition transform
  • Updating the Extension description file format

Pending questions

• @cpinter Do you know what is the status regarding Model Hierarchies ?

• As planned, should we remove the legacy Editor ? My vote is yes.

Next hangout

We will review remaining items on the roadmap (CLI to be removed, …)

Thanks for the summary Jc, I look forward to the follow on discussions and work

@jcfr

As planned, should we remove the legacy Editor ? My vote is yes .

On this note I think the question is whether there are still any extensions that rely on this legacy code. Personally I don’t mind seeing the Editor module disappear, but at the same time I don’t think it hurts anything to have it included in a legacy and deprecated condition.

[cpinter (Csaba Pinter)]

As far as I know, model hierarchies now work well with subject hierarchy. There were I think two bugs, but those have been already resolved.
