However you'd search for Hugin if you were to find a panorama creation tool... I don't think this is a strong argument. Why not use a nice name like Daisy and add a short description, (like Hugin has: "panorama photo stitcher")? You'd still be able to find it that way. And to end users such a name is more friendly too. Well, that's my opinion. And what about when another patent free feature detector is build? You'd end up with confusion if you only use a descriptive name, or you'd have to resort to full descriptive names like scientific papers often do (ugly!). Remember qtpfsgui? I definitely wouldn't vote for that one. > If this were my project, I would seriously call it "Patent Free > Feature Detector".

That is, if you know your panorama-creation program should "detect features" in the source images. It's only obvious once you know what you should be looking for. -- Bart -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "hugin and other free panoramic software" group.
