I'd like to incorporate more features into the Variable Stars iPhone app, but it requires additional data to be included in the VSX data dump.
- Remarks - particularly valuable in providing background.
- Spectral Type (currently I'm cross-matching against GCVS - only have info for ~ 11k stars)
- # observations in AAVSO db (useful for observers wanting to identify both popular as well as neglected stars.)
- flag to indicate if the star is part of an active observing program
Oh AAVSO Gods, Hear my prayer!
