If I recall correctly, the only possible issue that was brought up
when OSSIM was recommended for graduation was some confusion of source
code headers. I recall there was some intention to resolve this, but I
have not been keeping up with mentor duties nor following the project,
so I do not know whether this was resolved or not. Unfortunately at
this moment I do not have the time to look into or assist in this
matter. Perhaps somebody else would be kind enough to volunteer?

The email I refer to is here:

There were some follow ups, but it seems that they were not captured
in the archives.
