Hi Everyone

As Roy Tennant pointed out (welcome to the forum Roy!), the PBS News Hour 
(a national US public television news program) ran a segment last night 
that focused primarily on on SurveyLA , the citywide historic resource 
survey of Los Angeles that is being carried out by the City of LA through 
the support of the Getty. The segment also tied this work to the Getty 
Conservation Institute's and World Monuments Fund's development of the 
Middle Eastern Geodatabase for Antiquities (MEGA) - Jordan (which sprang 
out of a collaborative project to help Iraq's national heritage authority), 
our subsequent development of Arches (the segment incorrectly says that 
Arches was implemented in Jordan), and the current effort to customize 
Arches for the City of LA. Some of you in the US might have seen the 
segment. If not, you can view it (7 minutes) online at:
http://www.pbs.org/newshour/bb/preserving-cultural-treasures-los-angeles-one-block-time/

A number of enhancements to Arches are currently underway through the 
customization for the City of LA, and will be included in the release of 
version 3.0 planned for the end of this year.
