Your input on what you feel is important functionality will be used in planning future McIDAS development. The SSEC survey on McIDAS use can be found at: http://www.ssec.wisc.edu/mcidas-v/survey.html Most users should be able to point-and-click their way through the survey in a few minutes. The survey will, however, take longer for sites with locally developed code. Please complete this survey by the end of May. Please feel free to forward this email on to anyone that is a McIDAS user or developer at your site. If you have comments that fall outside the scope of the survey, please send them along to Unidata User Support <address@hidden> so we can forward them to SSEC. One area that comes to mind that you may want to comment on is your use of McIDAS-XCD in decoding real time IDD data into McIDAS compatible forms. After the SSEC compiles the information gathered from their survey, they will be looking for longer-term commitment from several McIDAS users to participate in evaluations of a next generation McIDAS, McIDAS-V, that will be Java-based. The time you spend participating in the survey is most appreciated. Cheers, Tom Yoksas
