The Inspector beta program is expected to begin in late October.
To be included in the program, as with any Silicon Graphics Beta
program, you need to:

1. Complete a software beta agreement form
   (you can get these from me or any sgi employee who
   has access to our internal web site).

2. Have a serious commitment to testing and evaluating
   the software, as well as reasonalble expectations that
   you will use the product.

That's it!

For those of you that are wondering, "What's Inspector?" Here's
a *very* brief summary:

Inspector is a multiplatform, extensible 3D toolkit and framework that
enables the efficient and rapid rendering, querying, and modification of
very large databases. Targeted primarily at the CAD industry, it provides
applications programmers the tools necessary to build optimized virtual
mock-up and "design in the large" systems under a single API. Because it's
extensible, applications can add significant value by creating special
purpose cullers, simplifiers, and tessellators, etc. that exist as first
class citizens in the data simplification pipeline. These objects can work
in concert with the default objects or replace them. The Inspector Beta is
expected late October, 1996.
