3DVIEWNIX DISTRIBUTION MODES
                        ----------------------------
 
We have created an FTP version for
the new 3DVIEWNIX 1.4 Version that can be anonymously FTPed from our
server --- mipgsun.mipg.upenn.edu. (130.91.180.111). You should go
to the directory : /pub/3DVIEWNIX/BINARIES. The new FTP version has
full functionality as the source code version that is distributed.

You may already know that 3DVIEWNIX has been picked
up as one of the TOP 10 GRAPHICS SOFTWARE PRODUCTS OF THE YEAR for 1993
by IEEE Computer Graphics and Applications (January 1993, pp. 87). In
order for more people to access the power of 3DVIEWNIX, we have
extensively changed our policy of distributing 3DVIEWNIX. We now have
the following modes of distribution.

The two types of Confidentiality Agreement forms can be anonymously
FTPed from our server (mentioned above). They are in the directory :
/pub/3DVIEWNIX 1.1.1/3DVIEWNIX_ORDER_KIT.

You can access lots of goodies via anonymous FTP like MPEG movies
(/pub/3DVIEWNIX1.1.1/MPEG_MOVIES), 3DVIEWNIX data files
(/pub/3DVIEWNIX1.1.1/DATA), a list of 3DVIEWNIX papers and technical
reports (/pub/3DVIEWNIX1.1.1/PAPERS), 3DVIEWNIX Library Reference Manual
(/pub/3DVIEWNIX1.1.1/MANUALS).

There is a WWW home page on 3DVIEWNIX.  The URL is
