The article refers to a series of problems posed by Hilbert in the year 1900 that were unsolved at that time. I have seen references to these problems elsewhere and wonder where I might be able to get a survey type of article about these problems? That is, a list of the problems, which of them are still unsolved (if any), how the others were solved, who solved them, etc. Sam Quiring Verdix, Western Operations {decwrl!sequent, tektronix!ogcvax, allegra!ogcvax} !verdix!sbq
