11.0.1 THIC Tape Head Interface Committee
I would like to bring to your attention the THIC Home Page at the URL
http://www.thic.org/thic/ and its anonymous ftp archives at the URL

THIC started out in the early 70's as the Tape Head Interface Committee
under the auspices of the DoD, but has since grown and expanded to embrace
most data recording technologies. THIC has been meeting four times a year,
alternating between the east and west coasts. The last meeting was in
Seattle WA on Jan 21 and 22, 1997, and the next will be on April 22 and 23
at the DoubleTree in Tysons Corner VA. The papers range from marketing,
new product announcement and discussion, to the problems of the various
recording technologies. Since October 1995, I have been trying to collect
as many of the papers as I could from each of the meetings and have been
placing them in Adobe PDF on the THIC archives at ftp ftp.uu.net. I also
maintain a no-frills home page where the agenda is displayed, with links to
papers which are available in the archives. (P.C. Hariharan, 97/2)
