Make into a pull request for upstream OpenCV

[rgap]

Hi
Did you do a pull request for including clahe in Itseez/opencv ?
Please answer.

thanks : )

I haven't done this yet. Two issues:

1. Shervin Emami made his changes under the LGPL license, while OpenCV code must be under the LGPL. Several ways around this: ask Shervin to make his code BSD, get rid of Shervin's changes and re-implement them from scratch, or make the code part of contrib module.
2. OpenCV has a higher standard of quality, such as needing testing, and successful compilation across all platforms.
3. OpenCV's pull request process left a bad taste in my mouth the last time I tried.

You're welcome to help address any of these in any way you can, but I don't have time right now to do so myself, however I'd be happy to accept pull requests that get the code into shape.

1. I dont see why to change the LGPL
2. Ill try to correct Algorithm fails on 64-bit platform #1
3. Lets try again, maybe there are more mentors these days
