wanted to share this feedback on the book with all the developers. George
Grevera is at <st1:City w:st="on">St. Joseph</st1:City>’s University in <st1:City
w:st="on">Philadelphia</st1:City> and teaches computer science and is also
developing his own package with Jay Udupa on <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:State

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;

study in real-world software engineering using agile methods. I guess his
really liked our discussion of the software engineering techniques involved.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

Werner Korb of <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:City w:st="on">Leipzig</st1:City>, <st1:country-region

Lemke’s working on workflow. He is interested in looking at IGSTK for
use in their surgical PACS effort. In that regard, he is very interested in how
our time stamping method works. He has also talked to Patrick some and may
participate in the tcons at some point.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
