This release fixes a bug that caused Atropos to fail when using the HistogramParzenWindows likelihood model with multiple threads.

Script fixes and updates include better support for different head sizes in antsBrainExtraction.sh, and support for priors in BIDS format in antsCorticalThickness.sh.

The docker image is also updated (thanks @jennydaman) for improved performance and compatibility with different hardware architectures.
