[Insight-users] about itk and python

[Gaëtan Lehmann]

Hi,

I've made a few measures for the upcoming wrapitk release.
They are available at http://code.google.com/p/wrapitk/wiki/Release030

They show a quite important improvement compared to the previous  
release (the one in ITK) for almost all the mesures.
