OpenSlide library inquiry

[Villalon, Elena]

Hello, thanks for keeping us informed of the latest openslide issues. I would like to know if we could get a copy of the 64 bits binaries and if you let us know about the answers to the format questions. Elena

Dear,

I would like to thank you for your efforts in developing and maintaining a 
project such as OpenSlide. It has been a real lifesaver for us and has 
allowed us to do some really cool things over the past year.

We were recently able to recompile the OpenSlide library in a 64-bit 
version (which was a challenge with all the dependencies). Would you be 
interested in hosting this 64-bit version of the library and perhaps 
benchmarking it for speed?

We also have some questions at this point:
* Our current generation of the 3DHistech scanner generates MRXS files 
that cannot be read by OpenSlide. Examples of these files are at 
http://www.histogenex.com/agelos/mrxs/problem_mrxs.zip
* Why did you choose the OpenSeadragon viewer and not some other platform 
such as e.g. Zoomify or OpenLayers? 
* Do you have plans to incorporate the ZVI format as well in OpenSlide?
* Do you have experience with Leica's BigTIFF format and how does it 
differ from the currently supported TIFF formats in OpenSlide?

Kind regards,

Yves Sucaet
