The Digitized Sky Survey, 102 CD-ROMs, is not distributed with the
system.

I had always assumed that was the reason. A 103-CD Plan 9 distro
is not something I would enjoy.

well, ngc2000 != DSS, at least as far as I know.

in re the DSS, would it be possible to have the program query

http://archive.stsci.edu/cgi-bin/dss_form

or

http://archive.eso.org/dss/dss

rather than assume the presence of a 102 CD set somewhere?

... the coding is currently beyond me (most things are, but that's an excuse and maybe ... it could be a project) so it is essentially a hypothetical question.
