How to manage credits for Unpublished Work
Motivation
Given that ITK is providing a vehicle for disseminating advanced algorithms it is getting more and more common that new code in ITK corresponds to work that has not been published yet. In order to protect the credits of the authors who kindly shared their code in ITK we propose to add a Macro that will warn users when a new algorithm is unpublished work and should not be used by second parties for publication without giving proper credit to the original authors.
Proposed Solution
A first proposed option is to create a new
itkUnpublishedWorkMacro()
to be added to the constructor of classes related to unpublished work.
This macro will print to the standard output the name of the author, institution and a warning re
