> During the past 2 weeks I worked on porting lines and labels to KStars
> Lite. I faced a few problems (had to find good algorithm for triangulation
> of concave polygon, spent some time on optimizing lines but still have a
> lot to do here) and also had a midterm exam (which I've passed :) ) but
> coming week I will have much more time to work on KStars Lite.

> Checkout my blog tomorrow as I will post detailed report on what was done.
> Also tomorrow you will find my next commit that will bring to KStars Lite
> support for constellation names, horizon, equator and ecliptic labels (they
> are treated a bit different because we need to rotate them according to a
> given angle, so I need to finish a few things with it).
