Many laboratories around the world are working on virtual worlds technology. Most of them use sci.virtual-worlds as a listening post. So far, we've heard only from UNC, the HIT Lab, and various individuals at Autodesk and VPL regarding work in major laboratories. To read this conference, one might believe that the most important work in virtual worlds is taking place in garages. (Maybe it is!) For this conference to work BEST, we need participation from more of you who are currently in "lurk" or "surveillance" mode. Please let us know what you're up to and, without revealing proprietary information or plans, help us round out our under- standing of the state of our art. Thanks. Bob Jacobson Moderator
