[fitsbits] proposed changes?
Hi Rob,
Here's the current status of this: As you probably know, the IAU FITS Working Group appointed a small technical panel to make recommendations for updating and clarifying the FITS Standard document. That panel finished drafting it's initiial set of recommendations about a week ago and presented them to the full IAU FITS Working Group for an initial assessement, to make sure everything is in order and ready for wider public comment. We are now fixing up a couple loose ends, but I hope that the full set of recommendations can be posted on the FITS Support Office Web site in another week or so. There will be an anouncement on FITSBITS when they are available for public comments. The comment period will extend at least until the time of the ADASS meeting in late September. Bill Pence Rob Seaman wrote: The ADASS abstracts are online (rather early it seems to me - good work), and some of the usual suspects have a presentation on the results of the IAU panel: http://www.adass.org:8080/Conference...vents/banquet/ events/calendar/people/participants/abstract?abstract_id=335 The abstract includes a link that doesn't appear active yet. Anybody want to comment on when the results will be made public and the comment period will open? I thought the mandate for the panel was to update the document, but it sounds like the standard may also evolve. Or have I missed an announcement? Rob |
