The blogs on your website often answer questions that I would otherwise ask in support. Since you don’t necessarily get feedback from your logs that indicates that - I figured I’d say that … the Python interoperability s…

The www.vtk.org DNS record points to web.kitware.com using a CNAME, but web.kitware.com is not known. Various links on the VTK homepage (on https://vtk.org, not www.vtk.org) point to www.vtk.org, and lead to nowhere.

Hi folks, What do we think of adding subcategories under the Web category for vtk.js, vtk.wasm, Glance, and VolView? Glance and VolView are applications based on vtk.js, and there isn’t a community forum for them, and w…

Some discourse sites have an “offtopic” or “community” category - for announcing projects, etc., because there is a lot else going on in the VTK world unrelated to “I have a problem that needs solved,” or some other deve…

I’m looking at the VTK download page (https://vtk.org/download/) and think it’s a bit confusing. I think we’re currently in the release candidate stage for v9.2.0 but the download page lists 9.2.0 as the latest release. …

It would be nice if like ITK, VTK would provide the checksums in form of downloadable files, making it easier to handle and check in a bash or python script. Thanks !
