Dear Reader,<P>


Katina Michael offers her impressions of the just-concluded Seventh International MapInfo Users Conference, held this year in San Antonio, in her article at <a href="http://www.directionsmag.com/article.asp?ArticleID=66">http://www.directionsmag.com/article.asp?ArticleID=66</a><P>


We've made a small revision to the structure of our home page; links to the six most recent press releases are now presented at the top of the center column.  Although these will be the most current six we've selected, they may not include all new releases since you're most recent visit; for this, be sure always to check the most current 25 releases at <a href="http://www.directionsmag.com/pressreleases.asp">http://www.directionsmag.com</a>  This page can be accessed directly from the "more press" link at our home page.<P>


(In fact, the front page listing may not even include all of the day's releases.  Yesterday, for example, we selected 11 important industry press releases!)<P>


Our discussion area (<a href="http://lists.directionsmag.com/discussion/">http://lists.directionsmag.com/discussion/</a>) has been expanded to monitor an additional 7 lists, bringing the total to 11 lists monitored.  The most active discussions this past week were as follows:<ul>


<li>MapInfo-L   145 messages
<li>ArcView-L   127 messages
<li>ArcView (Huber)   53 messages
<li>ESRI-L  51 messages</ul>
