To Discuss

Topics from Andrey, Steve, and Nicole regarding QIICR use cases that have recently broken:

2) changes in slicer module imports - [2] - courtesy email from Andras below:

FYI, these extensions are very likely impacted:
·         Reporting
·         PETTumorSegmentation
·         LongitudinalPETCT

3) Mitigation of bug tracker spam:

Earlier today, a group of highlight motivated spammers manually created account on VTK and CMake issue trackers, and started to manually create 10th of issues with incomprehensible title and contents.

As a proactive measure, I suggest we:

* disable automatic approval of mantis account creation 
* allow any user with developer access to approve account request

Let me know if that sound reasonable and I will share this plan with the Slicer developer list,
