0.5.3b [28/04/2003]

Spring cleaning :

Stopped using the previous unreliable astro library with badly defined licence and use the hopefully reliable LGPL libnova library instead.

0.5.3b [28/05/2003]

Changed the global coordinate system into the conventionnal astronomical one (ie with z axis toward top and x toward us)

Stopped using the previous unreliable astro library with badly defined licence and use 2 libraries created from modified/simplified version of the LGPL library libnova. One called stellastro which manage the astronomical operations like time management etc... and another one called stellplanet which only compute the planetary positions.

Removed the module/class planet_mgr and use a hierarchical unified planet class instead to manage all the solar system bodies with objective to add planet satellites, asteroids, comete and manage planet obliquity, and rotation of the textures.

Remade in a coherent way all the s_utility conversion functions (in double precision).

Created a new class "selection" to manage the selected object in a good object oriented way.

Created a new class "stel_object" to manage the selected object in a good object oriented way.

Abandoned my previous vector class for a modified version of the vecmath class from celestia.

Use double precision for every planet,orbit and navigation calculation.

Centralized all the navigation/time variables and operation in a new class "navigator" instead of the old non-object old navigation module.

Use double precision for every planet, orbit and navigation calculation.

Centralized all the navigation/time variables and operations in a new class "navigator" instead of the old non-object old navigation module.

The position of the observer on the earth is now taken into account in every calculation : the precision is dramaticaly improved, sun eclipses works etc...

Fixed many many bugs.

0.5.2 [29/04/2003]

Changed the configuration file to $HOME/.stellarium/VERSION/ on unix system to prevent conflicts between versions.
