  * PNG - Portable Network Graphics, Greg Roelofs

    PNG is an extensible file format for the lossless, portable,
    well-compressed storage of raster images.  PNG provides a
    PATENT-FREE replacement for the popular GIF format.

    Greg Roelofs is the author of the book "PNG: The Definitive Guide,"
    recently released by O'Reilly and Associates.  He will be travelling
    to Davis to speak at LUGOD during our Tuesday, March 7th meeting.

    He will be discussing the capabilities of PNG (like alpha transparency
    and gamma and color correction), and the status of Linux PNG tools.

    He'll also spend some time talking about his work on the Mozilla
    Open Source web browser project.
