ds9 is not in Fedora anymore, and I don't know why, but I'd like to have 
it in Fedora again. I use it a lot, and I know of a lot of other 
astronomers that also use it.

Also, I'd like to have in Fedora the following packages: Gildas, PyRAF 
(after IRAF is ready), Kapteyn, Montage (but this is non-free license).
