-RTS2 is an integrated open source package for remote observatory control under Linux. Its goal is to create a complete observatory control system, starting from weather sensing, through device control to observation execution and scheduling. The system is meant to provide you with an autonomous, independent observatory, protected from the elements. It provides the means to execute complex observational scenarios, to ensure the pointing and focus are good, and to handle TOO reaction, logging, data sending and to generally simplify the problem of getting your science.+RTS2 is an integrated open source package for remote observatory control under Linux.

-2.ii.2oo9 I, mates, reorganized this title page into a little more compact format. I hope you will like it. +July 2011 
- +  * added various new device drivers (AstroHaven, ..) 
-User management was enabledso please create your account and then continue editing pagesYou can create account by clicking to Login button at the lower right part of the page, and then choosing register linkHaving accounts is only way how to keep track of who did what (and when). Currently only logged-in users can edit pages. +  * added basic image processing functions (calib.py)
- +
-Rewrites were enabled, so link to [[http://rts2.org/wiki/database_tools]] (and similar others) now work. +
- +
-Various pages were added in documentation section, grant proposal was expanded with list of interested persons. +
- +
-RTS2 web was moved to [[http://rts2.org]]. I will migrate this wiki there as well. For this, I make this proposal of [[namespaces]] (names before : ). Please feel free to edit it.+
