RARE recently commissioned a report on network access to multimedia
information. This report has now been completed, and is available by
anonymous FTP. The full report is rather lengthy, so there is a short
summary available as well.

Host: ftp.ed.ac.uk
Directory: /pub/mmaccess
Filenames: report.doc Report in Word for Windows 2 format (binary!)
report.ps Report in Postscript form
report.txt Report in ASCII text form
summary.doc Summary in Word for Windows 2 format (binary!)
summary.ps Summary in Postscript form
summary.txt Summary in ASCII text form
*.*.Z Each of the above files run through Unix
compress program (binary!)

I'd welcome feedback, comment etc. Discussion of the report is probably
best conducted on the Multimedia Information Services list,
