Because of SIGGRAPH finances we did not produce a May issue in 1992 (this was announced in the October 1991 issue, but may have been overlooked) and we have held the August 1992 issue until the SIGGRAPH '92 proceedings have been mailed. These both should be out very soon (can we say "any day now"?) While the proceedings are clearly seen as the best issue of Computer Graphics, I think you will find the August issue to have very interesting articles on the spread of scientific visualization beyond the usual high-visibility sites. For the record, finances have not improved, and we are also not planning an issue of Computer Graphics in May, 1993. Instead, we will "publish" an on-line special (unnumbered) issue about that time that will appear on siggraph.org and will be available by ftp and e-mail. This experiment with online publication will help fill the publication gap and should help us learn about the viability of online publications. While this note is not a formal call for papers for the issue, we hope to have some interesting articles dealing with online publications, and would like to hear from people who are interested in writing something for this issue. -- Steve Cunningham SIGGRAPH Director for Publications
