Hi David Since the public SPACETRACK catalog does not contain so called "sensitive" information as such I dont think this is the intention of the new scheme. As Jonathan pointed out it would appear that the intention is to prevent the anti-social behaviour of people who download far more than necessary and are now planning on a rather more complex system to prevent such. As regards access to "sensitive" material this will not affect elements that are provided by other sources ( eg the amateur network).

I think that limiting access to such so-called 'sensitive' information may be the point of this change. _______________________________________________ Seesat-l mailing list http://mailman.satobs.org/mailman/listinfo/seesat-l
