There was an interesting bit in yesterday's New York Times about the
proposed new JPEG 2000 format. Among the highlights: An alleged 200 to
1 compression ratio and the provision for adding a packet of text, which
should make captioning alot easier. The article gave a description of
the wavelet technology and raised the issue of how much of the new
format might be kept proprietary. If you've thrown out your copy, it
should still be at nytimes.com
