Hi Dave,

the purpose of the IDL mailing list is to work as gateway for users
without news access to encrase the knowlegde exchange for idl users.

The gateway program is currently under developpement. There are some
additional messages from other news groups like comp.lang.visualization
and comp.graphics etc. which are browsed every night for messages
with the string ' IDL ' . These messages are currently only sent
to the idlusers mailing list.

I've added you to the distribution list, have a look what goes on there
and let me know if I should you remove from the list.

Have a nice day,


Thomas
