Contributing Editor Tom Lane, t...@sss.pgh.pa.us" http://www.fileformat.info/format/tiff/egff.htm "... by Dr. Tom Lane of the Independent JPEG Group, a member of the TIFF Advisory Committee" -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
