Email contact: P1754@sparc.com Note: I am not connected with this group in any way, except that I just received a call for participation in the mail. I am thinking about participating, but since I don't have the funds to attend the working group meetings I'd just read the stuff. -- Andy Glew, a-glew@uiuc.edu [get ph nameserver from uxc.cso.uiuc.edu:net/qi]
