The purpose of this discussion group is to provide a forum for the exchange of ideas and discussion on the operation, design, management of and/or development of the computers, software, and equipment needed for multimedia production. Shelly McCoy, chair of the discussion group, will start each day off with a topic for discussion and participants can talk about the topic or propose a new topic. Please send her topics that you have for discussion: smc...@udel.edu.
