Just a quick update for all those interested.

I have retrieved the face image files acquired at AUUG 1992 from Digital
(kudos to DEC for sponsoring the project and providing so much help in
terms of hardware and people).

A quick survey shows that there were around 160 fools (ahhh, subjects)
who had their mugs digitised. My thanks to all these people (you know
who you are!) for making Facesaver such a success.

I expect to have a directory of faces and associated information published
in the next AUUGN (the next one to go to press, which should be the next
but one that members recieve).

The data will also be placed on a public ftp server within the next few
weeks (location not certain yet). The resolution and format of the images
will depend on the amount of space available.

The facesaver code (a motif application that grabs an X window and stuffs
it away as a PPM file) is available for free. Interested parties should
send me some mail. Please don't expect this software to look like anything
but the hack it is.

Suggestions and comments are welcome...
