Newsgroups

A scan of Internet newsgroups (on 27 April 1996) revealed the following newsgroups that are likely to carry information about compression. I created comp.compression (in 1991) and comp.compression.research (in 1992 I think), but I haven't read them since about 1993.

References To My Algorithms

I haven't sighted this article, but I've been told that:

Matthews G.J., Evaluating Data Compression Algorithms,  Dr Dobbs, January 1996.

contains a reference to my algorithms. If you spot a reference to any of my algorithms, please drop me a note and I'll add it here.
