WCS has accompanying documentation -- a users' manual, and some README* files that describe the system and setup, and address some of the problems that have been reported to date. These documents are available from the anonymous ftp site, csl.ncsa.uiuc.edu. In addition, I'm the user support person -- the Help Desk, if you will, for users. The system in release 2.0 has been installed at a dozen or more sites around the country. We're having a user meeting here in Urbana on August 13 and 14 -- If you're interested (I sent e-mail invitations to all of the sites we knew had used WCSr1, including Harvard), we'd be happy to reimburse you for your travel to Urbana, and put you up over the weekend. This is an open invitation until the few remaining spots are taken-- so pass it on. If you're interested, please e-mail me to get additional information. If you're having problems running WCSr2, or setting it up, or if you'd like to gripe about it, please give me a call or drop me e-mail. /laura -- Laura Shoman, User Support Coordinator, Worm Community System, Community Systems Laboratory Graduate School of Library & Info Science, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign shoman@csl.ncsa.uiuc.edu 217-244-7472 .
