KWSN Orbiting Fortress

[KWSN - News]

We know that our application code is inefficient, theres no need to be offensive or highly negative about it. The vast majority of the code was written by astronomy graduate
students, not computer scientists, whose main goal was to get an application that spits out the right numbers -- not one that did so efficiently. The whole reason we've released our
source code is so that you can help us make it faster. There's only Nate and myself working on the code, and I'm working on more of the distribution and machine learning aspects, not
going through all the legacy astronomy code (theres a lot of it and most of it neither Nate nor myself have written). So please, if you find code thats inefficient, redundant or outright wrong
please let us know instead of attacking the project and what we're trying to do here. Thats what the forums are for. Please try and work with us, instead of against us and hopefully in
a few iterations we'll have an application thats running a lot more efficiently.--Travis
