                       ANNOUNCING  graphUK
                       -------------------

With the proliferation of mailing lists, we can see no reason for 
computer graphics and associated topics to be exempt. For people who
can't access the USENET comp.graphics, there is (sporadically) 
INFO-GRAPHICS, but it's very heavily biased towards USA topics. We 
believe there is a need for a UK (and European) list to cover the 
kind of topics suggested below, and we have set up "graphUK". 

Please note that graphUK is a *moderated* list in digest format.

Computer Graphics          Graphics Packages (Gino, NAG Graphics, UNIRAS ....)
Image processing           Windows
User Interfaces            Computational Geometry
Curves and surfaces        Projective Geometry
Visual Realism             Shading and lighting models
Graphics Standards (GKS, GKS-3D, PHIGS, CGM, CGI ... CGM-3D ...)
de-facto Standards         PostScript
PEX                        PHIGS+ 
Eurographics matters       etc...

We would welcome contributions in the following areas:
   (1) News items, announcements of meetings, courses etc.
   (2) Requests for help/advice.
   (3) Offers of help/information.
   (4) Questions for debate.
       like "Graphics Standards are a waste of time, because de-facto
	     standards are better".
   (6) Gossip - no libel!!!!!
