Dear colleagues,
I'm very happy to inform you about great news from Brno. Right now I
prepared a complete photometry coverage results which are accessible
via internet under URL of Virtual Observatory which is under:
http://ada.astronomy.cz . I uploaded all runs obtained here at Brno by
Petr Sobotka and me and by Kamil Hornoch who observe mostly asterodis,
comets and supernovae in Lelekovice. Light curves contains also some
short info about conditions.
Virtual Observatory is more than just a data server so you can also
check some usefull refferences to other AL Com pages. Spent some time to
have a look and you'll certainly know all details of system soon.
Nowadays I work on linux/apache/php + cgi port of virtual observatory
and about some new functions. Altogether with Filip Hroch we speak now
about automatized data reduction and robotic upload to a central
database...
Last but not Least. While we have many of images we tried to combine
them together. Results are quite impressive. A great spiral gallaxy M 88
is very nice and fileds cover stars down to 20 mag so feel free to study
carefully this small part of a sky. Link to the page is in ADA system in
section refferences in page of AL Com or you can simply open it here:
http://codel.astronomy.cz/ada/stars/alcom/alcom.html.
Right now we have rainy days so just when we start next runs we
certainly send some alert. We would be very happy if other observers
would cover this superoutburst now to continue with very detailed
photometry study of the system.

P.S. An excellent example of image combining:
