Event Timeline
Hi Stefan,
how is the plan here? Will MITK remain backwards compatible to VTK 6.2?
We need that version because VTK 6.3(+) has a bug that blocks us (http://www.vtk.org/Bug/view.php?id=15866)
The plan is to upgrade soon to VTK 7 while still using the OpenGL 1 backend. However, until the next major release we want to migrate to the OpenGL 2 backend, which isn't compatible with VTK 6 anymore. If there's a later VTK version fixing the bug until September/October, we'll use that one of course.
