Tim and/or Peter,
I'm talking to Mireille Louys who is looking at tools with 3D support
that can be used for IFU data, specifically from MUSE(?) which I
think is some kind of ESO instrument. She's considering GAIA, and wants
to know about expectations of future support, possibilities for getting
it to work on Windows, and possibilities for collaborating on or
requesting new functionality if it's required. Some effort for
assisting with a cygwin port is a possibility. I said I thought that
JAC would expect support to continue, though obviously only on a
best-efforts basis for external projects, but I'm not sure whether
Peter's status (still out on his ear soon?) affects this.
Can you give me any predictions or soundbites concerning future
support and development?
thanks
Mark
