[Insight-developers] New netlib slatec library

[Tom Vercauteren]

Hi Karthik,

Not sure how useful it might be for the statistics refactoring, but I
saw that the vxl team has just added a new probability density library
(vpdl) to its core libraries:
http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?thread_name=338E172A-31F0-4F60-AA7C-F2960F94818A%40gmail.com&forum_name=vxl-maintainers

If a third party library is still needed for the refactored itk
Statistics, it might be worth taking a look at vpdl.

Regards,
Tom
