    Question:  I have heard rumors that PHIGS+ has an image specification.
    Is this so?

I believe there was a proposal for PHIGS+ imaging functionality from VIT, but
as far as I know it was not adopted by the ad hoc committee.  I don't know
what the status of this within ANSI is.

    If so, how will this image spec compare with the proposal
    which DEC and others have made for an X image standard specification?
    What's the likelihood of them merging?

Unknown.
