Hi
Apologies in advance if this is not in the right place...

Can anyone enlighten me as to the current and future stance of Intergraph
re "Open Systems" both wrt comms (OSI) and Windowing (X-Window System?,
OSF/MOTIF? , Open Look? etc.)

Are there any plans to modify cartographic and GIS products to produce
as output and accept as input modern standard formats ?

I would be particularly interested to hear of any planned developments 
which would aid in integrating Intergraph based products with
others running in a VAX/VMS environment over Ethernet. Will FDDI be
supported?

Please E_mail any reply since I will not be in a position to access
this board for a while, any posted messages would almost certainly time 
out before I got the chance to read them.

Hardcopy and pointers to informative journal articles gratefully
accepted.

Thanks in advance...

Carolyn &:-)
