The problem with imaging is, that the code is optimized towards speed in a way the makes it hard to encapsulate internal data structures. This is where a lot of the FindBugs warnings come from [1]. Furthermore we have a lot of checkstyle violations that need to be fixed [2]. I'm not sure all the problems can be fixed without major changes to the API. But we should fix this before 1.0. > > I thought I might start by dressing up the documentation or writing some > unit tests for one of those modules if they are currently without a > maintainer. I hope I can help. > Note that you can also use our github mirrors at [3] for contributing.
