Short of having our own T-1 lines with webservers on them we still have
access right now providing us with the ability to exchange large
quantities of info: CD's, tapes, web/ftp sites. The format in which the
info is delivered needs working on. Hence, SGML, XML via the Web and
tools for creating CD's with well organized/structured information: text,
multimedia, interactive features, indexing, searching. CD's with turnkey
databases (XML?) that we can add our own resources to.
