Andras, Each of our systems, VTK, ITK and Slicer use a different process. I am only comfortable with the one that I am currently using. If I change from VTK to Slicer, I need to relearn. Even from VTK to ITK I have to relearn a bit.
Until we all use the same process, we will have these issues. And that I can assure you, will never happen...
