Congratulations!!! It is nice to see that this work progresses!
I just downloaded it and had a quick look from the perspective of
packaging it.
Just a few questions/comments:
* I very much like the idea of having the external C code in a specific
diretory tree "cextern" since this makes it easier to split this part
and use the versions provided with the OS. I would guess that also
the "wcslib" part will move from pywcs to cextern?
* Will pywcs survive as external package or shall we consider moving
from pywcs to astropy.wcs in the medium term?
* I would volunteer to do the packaging for Debian (and Ubuntu).
Best regards
Ole
