- Well, `Obelisk' was created to be very similar to EuroChart, but for
- NON-European demo groups. This would include Australia, Canada, and the
- USA.
-
- We even have a couple Australian members in Epsilon... :)
-
- The coding for the chart is completely done, and in some ways it could be
- considered to be superior to EuroChart.
-
- All we need is votes [what for yet? :)], news and info about non-European
- groups, and digitized pictures.
-
- Send whatever you want (as long as it's not lethal) to idr@cs.pdx.edu
-
- In order to really start the scene [and give us something to have votes
- for], we'll have to get the non-Euro groups to start putting demos up on
- ftp sites and posting a message to say where you can get them from.
