Hi
Thanks for the reminder. I've just written to Jason to see what his
response is.
Also, I must point out that other GPL-ed software such as Cartes du
Ciel and Stellarium ship out Tycho-2 data. Now, I'm bad with
licensing, but does that mean we can use it as well? I can ask the
stellarium list to find out if they got any explicit permission, or
whether they had a source that said it was free.
Regards
Akarsh
