I'm currently discussing things with some folk within DigiBoard who have been helpful so far. I'll let the list know when we have a policy clarification. Jordan, if you have the names of any DigiBoard people you spoke with in Germany that I should pass along to Digi International in Minnesota please forward them to me. I'll cc: this to Digi under separate copy (I don't want them to start to get mail directly from our list). Peter -- Peter Dufault Real Time Machine Control and Simulation HD Associates, Inc.
