Hi >>"The Presentations Package addresses a great many issues of exposition and graphical output". Yes, it makes fairly easier to develop rather complex graphics, saves a great deal of time, allows for creating reusable pieces of code and makes the maintenance and modification of working programs more reliable and affordable. I have got from that package much more than the $50 that I paid. >>"I believe most of us who use the Presentations Package think it a great value and wish WRI would incorporate David Park's work in the standard distribution of Mathematica. >>Some of us have lobbied for that to happen directly with WRI marketing folks and I hope that more Presentations users will add their support to that effort." I second that. It would be a great improvement if WRI included either the David Park's package or the equivalent functionality. In my humble opinion and from my long experience writing code for graphics, the David's approach saves time, saves money and renders cleaner code.

I believe most of us who use the Presentations Package think it a great value and wish WRI would incorporate David Park's work in the standard distribution of Mathematica. Some of us have lobbied for that to happen directly with WRI marketing folks and I hope that more Presentations users will add their support to that effort. This is not an easy process as it appears you have experienced. In The Mathematica Journal Volume 10, Issue 3, 2007 I recently came across your article: A Mode-Matching Method for Multichannel Scattering Problems by Peter Falloon. As a sidebar it was mentioned that: " Falloon developed a Mathematica package to compute spheroidal wavefunctions, which will be incorporated into the next version of the Mathematica system. " I have not been able to find any references yet in V7. Que pasa? Cheers ...
