Sv: BMG suggestions

["Andreas F. Wehowsky" <andreasw@mit.edu>]

Hello everybody,

thanks again for spending your time this tuesday (too bad we couldn't get to see you).

BMG is up and running now in the Graphics Lab at MIT, but there are still some minor problems.
A bus error occurs, for example, when I try to do the convert-command (DXF->UG with acad2ug) from the menu in BMG. We will try to fix these errors ASAP and get back to you when BMG is more stable (which shouldn't take too long).

Best,
Andreas Wehowsky 
(grad student @ graphics lab, MIT)
