Well, I don't expect that, but I can see it might be useful and hope it will be

Yes, quite a task! but I've always thought I'd get through them without a problem, so will continue with the positive attitude and hopefully get there soon
Thanks for your reply Dennis

Yes, a bit of a problem for publishing in a book, not just web. I have thought of sticking to the idea of volumes, split by RA, Constellation or whatever ends up useful. At the moment the full PDF is 244 pages, double sided would be 122 pages. That's OK. But 5 times that isn't so it would have to be split or re-arrnged some how. I look forward to the challenge though, I suspect it would be most useful in a printed format.

I have been wondering what grouping/sequencing would be best. So any suggestions on how people would find it useful are appreciated. By constellation is a good one, probably on of the most suited to visual observers?
Thanks,
