Sorry if I missed this in discussions at the sprint, but is there any
reason we're not taking advantage of OpenCV? It may be a little more
than what this scikit is aiming to offer, but it has some really nice,
well-optimized routines. It's BSD licensed. I have been using the
ctypes-opencv python wrapper, which is also BSD licensed.
Yes, it's another dependency, but it's really easy to get - Ubuntu &
Fedora have packages, binaries are readily available for Windows, and
it has built easily on my OSX system.
If you guys think it's something worth including, I can work on
getting the wrappers integrated with the scikit.
