The 3d viewer (marching cubes) and TrakEM2 depend on ImgLib1. I will
have time to work on it this Summer, not earlier than August.

What needs to be done:
 (1) Convert the Marching Cubes code in the 3D Viewer to use ImgLib2.
Should be easy and straightforward.
 (2) Create a Shape (as in java.awt.Shape) planar Img, which TrakEM2
would then use to present collections of java.awt.geom.Area as an Img
to the Marching Cubes.

I have created twice the ShapeImg in ImgLib2 and both times it was
erased. I would appreciate if now you guys create it. It won't take
long. Put it in an ImgLib2 package that has java.awt dependencies.
