The forum is not nearly as well established as the mail list or IRC. I
have used the forum when a search has pointed to it, but I find it
difficult to keep up with new posts. It would be much better to have an
option to have all new posts sent to a forum e-mail list or at least to
a new posts list on the opening page. I have gotten into the habit of
checking my e-mail, but it is more difficult to go to the extra effort
to seek the webite, login, and search through folders to find new forum
posts. It would be nice to merge the e-mail list and forum so that it
could be used both ways, but I think this would take considerable effort
and would not be especially fun to do.

As far as a feature finding camera, for most of us normal edge finding
works well enough. I haven't even tried probing yet, let alone video
feature finding. I do think it would be a great feature to have, and it
would be great if you would continue pursuing it. I just don't have much
to offer at this time. If I were to help out I would probably read
through the AXIS documentation a couple of times. It seems to me there
are one or two methods of calling external programs from AXIS. I am
often surprised by how much good stuff is in the documentation. For any
interested lurkers out there this may be a good time to get involved.
Many hands make light work. Slavko, maybe you could start a wiki page
presenting the work you have done so far, then a list of things to do.
