Post IOUG impressions

Hi everyone:

   Unfortunately, no CD was created by the IOUG. Instead, many attendees were creating CDs on their own. Because of the amount of material to download, the IOUG is strongly considering zipping up all of the files by track or some other category and placing on the web site for IOUG Members only. There are no plans to provide this for sale.

Thank You
