2005.10.20 : addstar-1.3

	This release incorportates many substantial improvements
	needed to handle the panstarrs data problems:
	- internal data representation now high precision
	- multiple data storage formats (LONEOS, ELIXIR, PANSTARRS)
	- multiple data storage modes (RAW, MEF, SPLIT)
	- alternative matching scheme (-closest)
	- sorted output tables now optional
	- incremental updates possible for inserts
	- client / server set now defined

2005.08.15 : addstar-1.2

        This is a snapshot release before I begin serious work on the
	code to handle alternate formats and so forth needed for the
	panstarrs support.  Minor updates since v1.1, mostly to fix
	2MASS issues and to stay in sync with the libs.  

2005.07.06 : addstar-1.1

	I have made a variety of fairly substantial changes since
        v1.0.  I have added autocode for the basic DVO data types.  I
        have merged the functionality of addspphot, addrefs, and
        addusno into the single addstar function.  There are now
        options to add an ascii text table or stars from known
        external reference catalogs (HST GSC, USNO, 2MASS).  Also, the
        functions added for skyprobe (in-flight Mcal calculation,
        color terms) are also incorporated.  I also substantially
        re-organized the basic code to make the different modes more
        sensible.  There are still a few changes needed for addstar
        v2.0 (which will be able to handle the pan-starrs bandwidth).
        specifically, addstar needs to handle the catalog files using
        the TBD sky.db interfaces, it needs to interact with a DVO
        server in a client/server way (to divide up the sky), it needs
        to handle multiple versions of the table formats, and it might
        need to know about the mysql backend interface.  

2005.02.24 : I am adding the mosaic two-level astrometry information to the Image table.
