I must agree -- perhaps too much redundant traffic. Rather than periodically
summarizing and rehashing what's come across so far, how about someone
building up an archive of the graphic image format specs and conversion
utilities?? This way, when someone wants to know what's available, they're
only an ftp away from the answer!
