Good point- code reuse/cooperating with other projects so that you don't reinvent the wheel is generally sound reasoning.

One of the authors of the fmri package (Brandon Whitcher) also wrote a pretty good DICOM package (oro.dicom). I'm not sure if fmri uses that, but it might be a good idea to incorporate as well.

That said, at this point I'm mostly working on documenting SPM- my uploading this repo is mostly for hobbyist purposes (my main hope is that working on it will help me understand what goes into a neuroimaging analysis on a fundamental level, and if I am able to aid in producing something useful that would also be quite nice).
