This message is to thank Jan Smits for posting to Maps-L the message that
the report of the 10th Conference of the European Map Curators of LIBER
1996 had been mounted on their server.  I was happy to learn this was
available and to receive the complete WEB address.  All of Jan's efforts
are appreciated, especially as I had seen only a little information from the
meeting.
 
Among the many merits of MAPS-L, I believe one of the more significant
assets is the sharing of events and information from a variety of map
related conferences.  Now that many of the meetings and organizations have
WEB sites it is so much easier for us to become a worldwide community
of people sharing a common bond of maps and remote sensing imagery.
 
I look forward to future postings of this nature and would like to thank
everyone who has taken or will take the time and effort to post the
information to MAPS-L.
