Re: [Stellarium-pubdevel] New DSO catalog

[Thomas M. <tom...@gm...>]

Hi Alex,

It's a good idea, although we may not want to restrict the unified
catalogue to the same license as the NGC/IC catalogue (which prohibits
commerical use and is therefore more strict than the GPL). How about
an extension containing the Messier/Caldwell/Herschel objects
hopefully with GPL license like the rest of Stellarium? We could ship
that and offer a download for the full NGC/IC.

Thanks,
Thomas
