[Kstars-devel] Inaccurate Catalogs?

Many more inaccuracies:
NGC 3550 is 14th magnitude but reported as 1.7 in our catalogs!
M27 has no magnitude defined!
M57 is shown to be 14+ magnitude while it is brighter than 10th mag!
Many Messier nebulae don't have magnitude defined (and this is messing
up the output of the Observing List)

I think we should try our best to replace this catalog with something
more accurate before the release.

BTW, when is the release?
