Hey Pierre,

I am very glad to hear that worked.  Thanks for helping track down
this issue.  I have updated the Fedora install page with a warning
about using compat-gcc-32.

We are still in the early stages of this project, but I think that it
will really take off over the next year.  Please let us know how you
are progressing or if you have any questions.  We will try to get you
answers on the mailing list and add more comments to the code itself.

Our immediate goals are to simplify the base classes, improve
installation and documentation, and get a few new developers started
using and improving the codebase.

When you get a chance, please let us
(nipy-devel at neuroimaging.scipy.org) know what you are planning on
working on.  Hopefully, we may be able to give you some help figuring
out where you should be working on the codebase.

Thanks,
Jarrod
