Yes, it sounds very good for people which don't need a lot of precision
in their image mapping, which are most of the current applications.

Please send any requests and additions to NCSA, through

httpd@ncsa.uiuc.edu

Rob is not working with NCSA this summer but if you want to reach him, you
can do so at robm@core.mcom.com

We are planning on having a new version of NCSA httpd (v1.4) by the end of
the summer. If you have any great ideas or suggestions, please don't
hesitate to let us know (httpd@ncsa.uiuc.edu).
