>        The MITRE Corporation is assisting the FGDC in evaluating
>enhancements to the FGDC Content Standard for Digital Geospatial Metadata to
>make it more useful and understandable.  To identify areas of needed
>improvement in the standard and to prioritize issues to be addressed, we at
>MITRE have developed a questionnaire to assist in gathering input from the
>geospatial metadata community.  This activity is not intended to invalidate
>any work that was previously done to implement the standard, nor will the
>results of this activity in any way disable any software development
>investments that any of you may have made to comply with the present edition
>of the metadata standard.  We encourage you to visit the questionnaire web
>page at

>If you are interested in providing your thoughts on an improved FGDC
>Metadata Standard, please complete your responses to the questionnaire by
>March 1, 1996.  I would ask that you return your e-mail responses to me at
>[log in to unmask] (please cc: them to [log in to unmask] and [log in to unmask]).
>Other comments and recommendations on the revision of the FGDC metadata
>standard that may not be covered in the questionnaire are also welcome.
>Thank you in advance for your interest in this activity.
