Hi Paul, Bernhard was just at a review for the STAR forward calorimeter and they have implemented an impressive readout for their calorimeter. Some of the details can be found at http://kabuki.eecs.berkeley.edu/~cline/papers/cicc/cicc12.ps.gz Thought you might be interested. Cheers, Elton. -- Elton Smith Jefferson Lab elton@jlab.org (757) 269-7625
