Description:

EPSILON is a powerful OpenSource wavelet image compressor.
Wavelet-driven compressors are know to be much more effective
than traditional DCT-based ones (like JPEG). At the moment,
the program supports 30+ different wavelet filters, runs
in parallel in multi-threaded and MPI environments, can
process HUGE images and much more.

Looks fine, few things:

1. Can we have the following support as well, I am sure that there will be a bug report if don not build the libraries with these, better to handle this time.

--enable-pthreads       Enable POSIX threads support [default=no]
--enable-cluster        Enable cluster mode [default=no]
--enable-mpi            Enable MPI support [default=no]

2. Include the licence file also, COPYING,  in doc

Comment 3 Volker Fröhlich 2011-01-15 23:51:05 UTC

I'm putting this on hold, since MPI is not trivial and the package I need this library for, is not available yet in the version we need.
