Subject: [JPEG-2000] Jasper 1.200 codec for VMS Alpha

JasPer 1.200, a JPEG-2000 codec is available for OpenVMS Alpha at the
DECwindows Archive:

http://decwarch.free.fr/decwnew.html

JPEG-2000 is a future ISO standard for still image compression using some other
algorithms than actuel JPEG compression and is supposed to be "better" (better
visual quality at the same compression ratio and better compression ratio at
the same visual quality). Future will tell which is the best... but you can
now test yourselves under VMS.

The kit contains the sources, documentation, the license terms (actually only
for non commercial usage) and OpenVms Alpha 7.2-1 binaries (built with Compaq C
V6.2-008).

Enjoy !!
