Some remote modules have been in use for a long time, and should be integrated into the main repository (i.e. [InsightSoftwareConsortium/ITK](https://github.com/InsightSoftwareConsortium/ITK/)). Some examples are [InsightSoftwareConsortium/ITKSplitComponents#50](https://github.com/InsightSoftwareConsortium/ITKSplitComponents/issues/50) and [InsightSoftwareConsortium/ITKFastBilateral#2](https://github.com/InsightSoftwareConsortium/ITKFastBilateral/issues/2).

I think there are more, and we should review the complete list. Better candidates are the remote modules with just one or two filters.

Then there are some rarely used/unused ones, such as [KitwareMedical/MultipleImageIterator](https://github.com/KitwareMedical/MultipleImageIterator). I think we should deprecate that one, and schedule it for removal in ITK6. Are there any more?

I created a [GitHub issue](https://github.com/InsightSoftwareConsortium/ITK/issues/3371) for this. If you have some opinions, please express them either here or (preferably) on GitHub.
