The Perl Toolchain Summit needs more sponsors. If your company depends on Perl, please support this very important event.

Changes for version 0.101 - 2017-12-07

  • Make 'decayed' internal status override anything from external sources. The idea is that the canned table is from Space Track, and therefore authoritative as to whether a satellite is actually on-orbit.
  • Iridium 8 decayed.
  • Sladen tweaks web page; scraper change needed.
  • Further deprecate Iridium status from McCants. Mike McCants has announced that he is no longer maintaining his Iridium status. The first use of his Iridium status will now generate a warning. In a further 6 months there will be a warning on every use, and 6 months after that it will become fatal.
