Sorry, we include a footer regarding ISO26300 on all our outgoing mail which links to a page with information about the format including software (like the Sun plugin) that can read it. It makes for easier reproduction! The URL is openarchaeology.net/iso26300 - feel free to pass it around or suggest changes/additions. ------ Files attached to this email may be in ISO 26300 format (OASIS Open Document Format). If you have difficulty opening them, please visit http://openarchaeology.net/iso26300 for more information. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
