Usable in a non-public production system? #17

Closed qume closed 8 years ago

qume commented 8 years ago

This project is fantastic, but I see that the repo hasn't been updated in a while.

Just curious to get a status update. I'm interested in using this for archival storage of a few TB of aerial images which need to be both stored lossless, but also queried for low-fi versions (for preview / index)

I can have everything backed up in original TIFF offline, so no risk there. Would love to choose this as our softwares new internal standard.

The FLIF bitstream is in the process of being finalized (should be ready by the end of the month), and I think @hrj is waiting to update poly-flif until the bitstream is final.

@qume @jonsneyers I spent some time today morning to merge the changes from upstream. I am able to compile the merged code but there's some run-time error. Unfortunately, I don't have time to debug it now.

I have pushed the commits here; if anyone would like to debug and make a PR, they are welcome :)

@qume For production use, I suggest waiting until the bitstream format is finalised. cheers!

I have fixed the errors, and poly-flif code is in sync with upstream now.

As soon as a release is announced by @jonsneyers, it should be possible to use FLIF and poly-flif in production.
