We start this column with the results of our third on-line opinion survey on public policy issues affecting computer graphics. Next we provide an introduction to and a copy of the definition paper for a prospective study of computer graphics research to be conducted by the National Research Council with partial funding from SIGGRAPH. This is followed by an update on our activities in proposing a course on public policy and a panel on digital rights management of intellectual property for SIGGRAPH 2001. Myles Losch provides an update on the issues related to the slow pace of adoption of Digital TV. Finally, we close with another set of comments from a reader.
