Everything in "This Web Site" (HTML document and associated files) is "Beta Test", "Beta Code", Experimental, Preliminary, requires proofreading, or is being evaluated for possible revision, and is NOT warranted to be free of defect.

SECTION: 1 has some "general" information about my CAD and CAM programs, information about this Web site (HTML document), and "news" relating to the aforementioned. See also the program files in your distribution of my programs and the other parts of this HTML documentation (Web site) for information more specifically about how my programs operate and their commands.

Rather than have users write to me asking about the current Newsletter, or to ask me "what are you..." and "when are you..." questions, I will try to post a HTML edition of The DANCAD3D.COM (tm) Newsletter here, so that users can try to check this section of the "Beta Test" Web site, at any time while the site is operating, to see if some newer edition of the Newsletter has been posted. This "On-line" Newsletter has in essence replaced the paper mail out versions. If you are viewing this newsletter from a CD-ROM edition of this Web site, or such, check the "On-Line" version for current information.

THE DANCAD3D (tm) NEWSLETTER: RELEASE CODE NL.WEB.Y2009.M01.D10.R0

Thank you for your interest in the programs. I always consider it to be a complement when someone like yourself takes an interest in my programs and Web site.

If you are not already familiar with my programs you might watch some of the streaming video segments in SECTION: 4 before you get more deeply into the recesses of this Web site, so that you will have a general understanding of some of things my programs do. An overview of automation and metalworking is given in SECTION: 7 to help you in familiarizing yourself with some of the vocabulary and concepts used in the other sections that directly discuss the commands in my programs.

The primary goals for 2009 are to continue flushing some of out the Digital Cinema post production programs and features. And for working on some additional documentation in this Web site relating to Digital Cinema and how my programs could be used for Digital Cinema tasks and motion picture production.

Be sure to check the What's New section from time to time to see what new commands have been added and or what improvements have been made to the current commands in the programs.

Please do not attempt to order anything directly from me at this time. Any current order form would be in the current "On- Line" version of SECTION: 8. All order forms more that 30 days old should be considered out-of-date and not to be used. All order forms from older program versions from v1.0 through v2.6 are out-of-date and SHOULD NOT BE USED ANY LONGER.

My preferred method of contact for support correspondence is by e-mail now since to allows cost "free" two way discussion of any issues you may find with the programs. SECTION: 8 has been revised to recommend that you use e-mail rather than postal mail or a phone call. You should feel free to ask questions about any program issues if you are helping to "Beta Test the programs since you questions help me understand what needs to be improved in the programs and the program documentation.

Thank you for your interest in my projects, I hope you have fun "Beta Testing" them, and I wish you success in your own projects as well!

With the completion, some time ago, of the mailing out of what was probably the last formal paper edition of the Newsletter to the previously registered users, current users, like yourself, will probably no longer have a reason to send correspondence to me asking me about how you can get a copy of a paper Newsletter. Instead of requesting a paper Newsletter you should simply check this section of the "On-Line" version of "This Web Site" from time to time for any possible future Newsletters. See also the What's New sub-section of this Web site.
