Word to the wise..

I have yet to be able to get FreeImage compiled on leopard.. actually
I have compiled it with dreaded symbol not found errors, linking issue
.. etc

So all of you with apps that use image_science maybe delayed a bit
before you can get it working. The image_science gem will install, but
will die if you attempt to use it.

Does not seem that the FreeImage project is all that active. I have
tried contacting developers via the usual mailing lists and forums to
no avail.

I''m not sure how much I can say about it other than that until Leopard
is released and I don''t have to worry about the NDA even though this
is a FreeImage issue more so than leopard.

Any of the Image_science devs want to talk to me off list feel free.

Hopefully someone with better C++ skills than me will soon fix it.
