For information to get on their mailing list, please write ian@warhol.gatech.edu or keith@escher.gatech.edu. We are still trying to find coordinators for *NeXT-Music SIG*, *NeXT-DesktopPublishing SIG* and *NeXT-Courseware SIG*. Are you interested in creating and coordinating your own SIG? ------------------------------------------------------------- As a SIG coordinator we are asking that you 1. maintain and coordinate the mailing lists per SIG. 2. Coordinate your regular SIG column in the NeXT Users' Journal - detailing the most interesting things to happen in correspondence that month, getting SIG-specific-topic articles written for your column, etc. All SIG coordinators will be put in touch with each other once things settle down and will be able to consult among themselves for helps, hints and strategies for running effective SIGs. Who to Contact -------------- Conrad Geiger has GRACIOUSLY volunteered to help coordinate setting up these special interest groups. If you want to start a group, please contact him at conrad_geiger@next.com and, if you would, cc me in on it. Right now, I am forwarding all SIG mailed directly to me to him for him to handle. Bryce, in particular, please contact Conrad directly and he'll get you started - ok? Keep in touch as always & take care y'all - Erica =+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+= Erica J.
