Hi Dylan, I was thinking of writing a function to import ROIs saved with ImageJ into GNU octave (GNU octave is a free as in freedom alternative to matlab, released under GPL) when I found your function online.
As developer of octave-forge (octave-forge is GNU octave's sister project for packages, similar to matlab's toolboxes. It has a large collection of functions written by many different people), I was wondering if you would be OK with adding it to the image package. If you are, could you please add a copyright notice that allows it, such as GPL? Currently you have no copyright notice so I think legally, I'm not even allowed to use the function for myself. I don't know if you know what the GPL license is, so apologies if the following sounds boring. By releasing it under GPL, you're giving permission for everyone to use and modify the code as long as they still distribute it freely under GPL. Also, you'll always be the copyright holder of the code, no one will take your credit away. Other free (as in freedom) licenses are also fine such as public domain, LGPL, MIT and BSD. If you have any question about this, please feel free to ask. If you want to release it under GPL, simply copy the header from this file to your code http://octave.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/octave/trunk/octave-forge/main/image/inst/imdilate.m?revision=8894&view=markup Also, here's the links you want to check the projects: * octave http://www.gnu.org/software/octave/ * octave-forge http://octave.sourceforge.net/ Hope to hear from you soon.
