Subject: [Aavso-photometry] FITS Keyword standard


> Does the AAVSO endorse any particular dictionary of FITS keywords?
> One of my long-term projects is to clean up the cacophony of FITS
> keywords that I've used in the various software packages I've written to
> manage my own observing sessions. I've discovered several FITS keyword
> dictionaries (see http://fits.gsfc.nasa.gov/fits_dictionary.html), but
> none seems appropriate off the shelf for AAVSO observing programs. Is
> there anything approaching a "standard" in use by the VSO community?
