Hi all,
I would love to get the astronomy tutorial [1] merged in time for the 
next release.  It's basically ready to go, aside from some typos (my 
favorite of which is the heading "Setup and Inspiration" in place of 
"Setup and Installation").  There are a couple larger tasks that remain:

  - make sure the tutorial plays nice with the ones that have already 
been merged (there is some duplicate information, especially in the 
earlier chapters)  Also there are several figures in common between the 
tutorials.
  - I load some datasets from the web directly within the example files: 
these `fetch_*` routines might need to be moved into sklearn/datasets 
for consistency (with some better comments).

Other than that, I think it's basically ready to go.  I'm hoping to give 
a scikit-learn tutorial based on this material at Scipy in July, so it 
would be really nice to have it included in the upcoming release.  The 
problem is, I am completely swamped with the final months of my PhD and 
several other deadlines, and won't have the time to put sufficient 
energy into this in the near future.  Is there anyone out there who can 
tackle this?  I'd be very grateful...

Thanks!
   Jake
