anybody out there, esp. at apollo working on multi-media mail?  this
seems to be shaping up as a sun dominated field, as nearly as i can
tell from demo and prototype material that is available or talked
about, etc.

however all this ends up being released, if it is, to what degree, to
what kind of sites, etc. it seems that sun users may have the inside
track on getting this stuff to run in their local environments.  it may
be distributed in binary only format, but a lot of us are probably
getting used to that.

a recent mailing to mmm-people said (in part) that

"... the SRI Multimedia Mail Software (including MPM) may be
distributed.  A complete set of the binaries, setup procedures, and
documentation in the form of UNIX man pages is available to any U.S.
organization."

mmm is certainly nice to look at, and will no doubt become a rapidly
growing area.

while i'm at it, who's doing X for apollos?
