Opening a new forum for digital microscopy

[Donald P Regula]

Dr. Weihrach-
With all due respect, you are asking OpenSlide users and contributors to participate in a forum on your COMMERCIAL pathzoom.com (EasyZoom) website.
A more appropriate site would be sponsored by someone without a commercial interest.
I am sure this was not your intent, but providing “your real name, your job position and company or University”  to your suggested forum.pathzoom.com, would appear to be an attempt to form a list of prospective clients.
I would never recommend such information be provided to any commercial entity.
Perhaps Benjamin might agree to open a parallel list at cmu, something like whole-slide-users.
Thank you.

Subject: Opening a new forum for digital microscopy


Hello everyone:

As the wave of digital pathology is starting to roll somewhere on the distant horizon, many of us are starting paddling on their boards right now not to miss the wave :)

I think it is crucial that we better organize our small groups to be able to compete against the big fish and not to end up as shark food in the next few years.

So, as previously suggested, I now started a discussion forum for commercial and non-commercial use, because Benjamin asked us not to post commercial stuff here. For everyone interested, please register under

http://forum.pathozoom.com

only with your real name, your job position and company or University. I will be happy activate your accounts manually (to keep out spammers) and am looking forward to a good collaboration / discussion.

Best regards

Martin
