I have added new comet.dat/asteroid.dat files both to Get New Stuff and 
to SVN trunk.  Unfortunately, I am at a meeting this week and I am not 
able to test these files.  Can someone please try it out for me?

Just install the new files via "Download new stuff" in the file menu, 
and then search for comet McNaught (2006 P1).  It should be near the 
Sun, with nearly the same ecliptic longitude (but offset from the ecliptic).

I haven't yet backported the files to the 3.5 branch, but I will if I 
can get confirmation that it works before the Jan 15 tagging deadline.

thanks,
Jason
