How do I convert an image file to an RSF file?
One option is sfjpg2byte. It requires the JPEG library to be present at the compilation time.
Another option (suggested by Vladimir Bashkardin) is to use the convert utility from ImageMagick.
or
< lena.jpg sfjpg2byte | sfdd type=float > lena.rsf
Another option (suggested by Vladimir Bashkardin) is to use the convert utility from ImageMagick.
< lena.jpg convert - lena.gray
echo in=lena.gray data_format=native_uchar n1=512 n2=512 | sfdd type=float > lena.rsf
or
< lena.jpg convert - lena.rgb
echo in=lena.rgb data_format=native_uchar n1=3 n2=512 n3=512 | sfdd type=float > lena.rsf
Google Summer of Code
Michael Tobis has submitted a Madagascar application to the Google Summer of Code. Check out the ideas page.
Madagascar group on LinkedIn
The greatest strength of open source software is the community of users and developers, with fast, two-way lateral communication that enables quick learning and rapid feedback cycles. Communication between users is improved when they know each other's backgrounds better.
To help users to better know each other, a Madagascar group was created on the LinkedIn professional networking site. Those of you who are members of LinkedIn, or are interested in becoming members, are welcome to join and to invite other Madagascar users. To keep away the ubiquitous spammers, admission to the group is subject to approval, but this will be granted as soon as possible to anybody who looks like a "real person".
LinkedIn offers forum capabilities as well, but please note that this is not an attempt to shift communication from existing channels (mailing lists, wiki, Sourceforge bug/feature request trackers/etc). On the contrary, since social networking sites generally try to "lock-in" users, and are not open to non-users, I would strongly recommend not using their discussion forums, but just using LinkedIn's connection features to get to know each other better.
Please note that this is not an endorsement of either social networking sites in general or LinkedIn in particular. It's just something entirely voluntary that some people find useful. For those of you who are not familiar with what LinkedIn is, a description can be found on Wikipedia.
