Hi Bart,
I have just finished updating/re-writing the article and forwarded a copy to Mike yesterday.
There have been a number of significent changes and the current "compatible" software versions are:
Stellarium version 0.10.5 from
http://www.stellarium.org/
StellariumScope version 20100614 (2010.6.14.47) from
http://www.welshdragoncomputing.ca/
EQMOD version v121d (2010-05-30) from
http://sourceforge.net/projects/eq-mod/files /
ASCOM Platform 5 and the 5.5.1 update from
http://ascom-standards.org/
The set-up now is much simpler and cleaner (as you found), hence the re-write which should be available shortly.
The second part is still in the thinking phase.
Karl.
