[Insight-users] Re: Journal submission gone wrong - probably

[Gaetan Lehmann]

Hi Luis,

I think it's a very good idea to use the same images for the article and  
the tests. I have done that for the next revision.
However, I don't know what to do with images generated by a program for  
the paper, like colored extrema on top of the input image. Should the  
Makefile run the program to generate the output image ? In that case,  
where will it found the program ? Should it be build by the Makefile ?
Or should we have the output image with the other images in the archive,  
and add a test to verify the output image ?

Regards,

Gaetan
