I just wanted to voice my opinion and say that as a happy and content Linux user and having only 4 Astronomy programs available i.e. (Celestia, Stellarium, Kstars, partial Xephem, and Sky Charts) I wish Sky Charts it's continued success and development.
I've been Linux distro hopping for over 4 years and am content now with PClinuxOS though I still like to see how every other Linux disto is developing. (Linux has gone a long way in the past few years. . . ) Sky Charts is a very good program for Linux and one that is badly needed by the Amateur Astronomy community using Linux. I for one am glad there are OS alternatives and am happy to have long ago dumped my Windows XP. These other astronomy programs as good as they are lack the wealth of detail and catalogs that Sky Charts currently has. Keep up the good work and future development. Rich
