[scikit-image] Request for comment: road to scikit-image 1.0

[Juan Nunez-Iglesias]

Hi Everyone,

A couple of weeks ago I published this blog post:

https://ilovesymposia.com/2018/07/13/the-road-to-scikit-image-1-0/

I didn't publicise it widely because it was in the middle of SciPy 2018
and I had many other things pulling at my attention.  I really want to
drive this vision forward, but not without further input from the
community (ie you guys). So I would really appreciate if you could take
a few minutes to read it, then publish your
criticisms/comments/wishlist to:
https://github.com/scikit-image/scikit-image/issues/3263

You can also just respond to this list.

I'll prime the discussion with a criticism from Stéfan: "reference"
library is not an exciting word to describe scikit-image. What 1-2
adjectives would you use to describe your vision for scikit-image? We
want to convey readability, ease of use, accuracy, and (reasonable)
performance.
After some reasonable number of comments, I'll do my best to compile
them and submit a PR to our documentation that will enshrine the
document within an aura of authority. =P
Thanks!

Juan.

PS: The whole discussion is rather timely: Egor Panfilov has drawn our attention (on gitter) to the fact that we have just passed our 10,000th commit!
