Please test the release candidate and share your experiences on the mailing list, issue tracker, and Gerrit Code Review.

An Experimental build, which demonstrates how the test suite performs on your local build system, can be submitted to the dashboard [1] with:

mkdir ../ITK-build
cd ../ITK-build
cmake ../ITK
ctest -j 4 -M Experimental  -T Configure -T Build -T Test -T Submit

Visual Studio builds must also add “-C Release” to the ctest command.

Notify the mailing list if there are any unexpected failures.  Testing your own applications against the RC is also appreciated.
