Comment 13 for bug 965811

I've made a new question here:

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/11169523/how-to-compute-alt-az-for-given-galactic-coordinate-glon-glat-with-pyephem

There are similar questions already for (ra, dec) <-> (alt, az) instead of (glon, glat) <-> (alt, az):

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8962426/convert-topocentric-coordinates-azimuth-elevation-to-equatorial-coordinates
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/6870743/calculation-star-position-in-the-sky-pyephem

Apart from the fact that pyephem seems to give incorrect results at the moment I think the docs and / or API for coordinate transformations could be improved a bit.
I've made tickets on bitbucket to discuss this because I presume you want to turn off launchpad at some point (there's no link to it any more from the docs)

Thanks for looking at this issue again!
