Re: film restoration / inpaint

Kai-Uwe,

There were three different potential code sources for inpainting, none 
of which went forward. The RBF code is reportedly simple yet compute 
intensive. It calculates the derivative in all directions from a hole 
and then fills it in. The Cuyper inpainting code was Pentium-only and 
hard to understand. The Harvard texture synthesis code was the most 
sophisticated in what it could achieve judging from published examples.

It was all very interesting, and a volunteer made an effort with the 
Cuyper code, but there was no real progress.
