The First-Year Report for the MCG activities is available at http://www.mcg.org.br/report98.htm The report presents in a nutshell what are the basic concepts, models and protocols being developed by the MCG. The work seeks to provide non-proprietary solutions in a public and open effort protected solely by copyright law, just like a book. The MCG waives patent protection from the onset. In one year, the MCG grew to include participants from 25 countries and has provided more than 2.3 Gigabytes of information -- almost all text -- over the Internet. More than 100,000 visitors (excluding 5,000 machines from neighboring domains) have directly reviewed the work being presented, which has reached more than 18,000 different Internet hosts (also excluding 5,000 neighboring machines). Comments and suggestions are welcome. Thanks, Ed ______________________________________________________________________ Dr.rer.nat. E.
