Default [fitsbits] First public release of APLpy

We are pleased to announce the first public beta release of APLpy, a python
module that makes it easy to interactively produce publication-quality plots
of astronomical images in FITS format. More details are available at

http://aplpy.sourceforge.net/

From the front page you can sign up to the mailing list and/or the Twitter

feed to be kept up-to-date on future releases.

About APLpy
===========

APLpy (pronounced 'apple pie') can be used to:

* Interactively or non-interactively produce publication-quality plots;
* Show grayscale, colorscale, and 3-color RGB images;
* Overlay any number of contour and marker sets;
* Dynamically hide, show, and remove contour and marker layers;
* Overlay coordinate grids;
* Customize the appearance of labels and ticks;
* Use LaTeX to typeset labels;
* Pan, zoom, and save any view as a full publication-quality plot;
* Save plots as EPS, PS, PDF, SVG, or PNG files;

Noting that APLpy is still in beta development, you may encounter bugs and/or
missing features. If this is the case, please let us know either by emailing
us at , or by leaving a bug report or feature request in
the forums at:

http://apps.sourceforge.net/phpbb/aplpy

Cheers,

Eli Bressert and Thomas Robitaille
