I am interested in your Astronomy Spin package for use in controlling some radio astronomy work i am planning. I need a way to plan observation schedules and then to control a dish antenna and collect and catalog data for later analysis. I think your Spin tool as stated is mainly for optical viewing but it should be possible for me to apply it for my needs without too much effort I feel. It beats me having to develop something from scratch. It will also have some capabilities I had not thought of including I hope.
This is an self funded amatuer effort on my part so I am making slow but steady progress.
I do not think I will be able to use the data analysis tools but I will try them out and make sure I know what is possible.
On the Merging of the groups….
Feedback here has been slow. I am mostly interested in Astronomy and worry that the merger may turn into a distraction. I really do not know anything about the other group though. I subscribe to Nature and Nature Physics. In those publications they cover a lot of ground and I find myself focused on Astronomy/Cosmology but occasionally reading other things. I mention this because it seems like a similar idea will take place if the merger goes forward.
Thanks for all your efforts.
Best Regards,
Bob Stricklin

Hi Fedora astronomers!
Are you stil alive? I've sent a couple of mails about our possible Spin, future etc. and got no response :(
One new idea (some people on fedora-devel list and me had) is a merge of Astronomy and Scientific Spin. Maybe we could go one more step and merge Astronomy SIG into SciTech SIG? Because Astronomy is also science and at least all this python packaging stuff does also happen @SciTech.
Your opinions?

Hi Christian, yes, I think is a good idea to merge the SIGS. Most of the things I have packages are useful for all sciences, not only Astronomy.
Best, Sergio
