Hi William,

We are not losing much when using the command line interface.
Using the OTB-Python wrappers we could have a better progress reporting, but it is minor.

On the other hand, we run into packaging/dependencies hell when trying to link Qgis and OTB together. With the current state of the gdal package on some platform (debian/ubuntu), it would crash.

Also, we are clear of potential licensing issue (compatibility between cecill and gpl licence) with this setup.

So let's say it is a good solution for now...
Victor might have more arguments on this.



Best,
Julien

If we're using this in Sextante, a python module package for QGIS, don't we 
want the python wrappers?  Seems silly that Sextante devs would ignore a direct 
python interface to OTB.
