We included a copy of Christophe's `tifffile.py` in our repo and are using that within our PIL plugin for loading TIFF files.
Ah great, in that case I suspect making an imageio plugin would be easy.
I could see perhaps *vendoring* ImageIO to replace `skimage.io` and requiring FreeImage as the only external dependency.
What do you mean by "vendoring"? BTW: the freeimage lib is auto-downloaded. Imageio also has its own version of that lib for Linux, since I found some Linux's have a rather old version of FreeImage, which was causing bugs. Also good to know: Ghislain Vaillant is currently making a debian package for imageio. Regards, Almar
Stéfan would have to weigh in on that.

Hi all,
I'm pleased to announce version 1.0 of imageio - a library for reading and writing images. This library started as a spin-off of the freeimage plugin in skimage, and is now a fully-fledged library with unit tests and all.
Imageio provides an easy interface to read and write a wide range of image data, including animated images, volumetric data, and scientific formats. It is cross-platform, runs on Python 2.x and 3.x, and is easy to install.
Imageio is plugin-based, making it easy to extend. It could probably use more scientific formats. I welcome anyone who's interested to contribute!
