The DECUS U.S. Chapter Communications Committee has been asked to look
into "bundling" the existing session note documents or extracts from
these documents with the audio tapes.  There are PROBLEMS with this.
Some of the trouble comes from the contract with have with the people
who do the taping (DECUS U.S. does not own the tapes), some trouble
comes from the logistics of associating a portion of a particular
session note with a particular tape.  And it goes on from there.  The
Comm Comm LRP (Long Range Planning) Committee has this on its agenda
and will be looking for ways to bring this or a similar product to the
membership.  If you have suggestions about how this product should
look and how we should price it, I am interested in hearing from you.
