Open-source Imaging Environments.

Attached is a list of imaging environments and tools I found, 
then used and ranked open-source first. Hopefully, many of you 
will collaborate with these user groups, around already 
well-built platform and user interface, rather than starting 
on your own, from scratch.

These can be seen as the equivalent of Numerical Recipes or
Graphics Gems.
