[Kstars-devel] Orientation of Saturn's rings

Hi

I recently bought the "Astronomical Algorithms" book by Jean Meeus,
and it has a calculation for the angle of Saturn's rings. Is anyone
interested in implementing this in KStars? If so, I will be happy to
write out the algorithm as long as someone can write out the interface
/ graphics part.

Also, the Jupiter Moons tool could do with some improvements (to
distinguish between superior and inferior transits, and tabulate times
of transit, for example)

Regards
Akarsh
