Re: [Tiki-devel] New Tiki branch 26.x

Many thanks Roberto and Rodriguez, great job!

I like the look and sound of Alnilam as it's a real star and is the one in the middle of Orion's belt, so we've all seen it!

    http://stars.astro.illinois.edu/sow/alnilam.html

And it's going at 26km/s... a little surprised we haven't had it before in fact.

Just my 2¢ :p
