[Insight-users] Listing all the ITK classes wrapped for Python

[Gaetan Lehmann]

Hi Richard,

I'm working on wrapping more classes in ITK (with the hope that it will be  
integrated in ITK in a near future :-))
I'm not (yet) using registration in ITK, and so, I'm not able to add  
classes related to registration by my self, but if your interested in  
using those classes in python, I would be pleased if we can work together  
to wrap those classes.

Regards,

Gaetan
