Changes for version 4.38 - 2024-10-28

  • Added --epoch option to the catalog_convert script.
  • IO module for VOTable should be slightly more tolerant and not attempt to write non-equatorial sources.
  • Tk::AstroCatalog should not add planets to JCMT catalogs.
  • The Item constructor argument Coords should be processed first in case other accessors require coordinates to already be in place.
