Update on the 2.0.0 release & the full manual
We are getting close to the 2.0.0 stable release and the full manual. The manual will soon become available on the website and also in PDF format. Both versions will be identical and once released, will start to follow the APP release cycle and thus will stay up-to-date to the latest APP version.
Once 2.0.0 is released, the price for APP will increase. Owner's license holders will not need to pay an upgrade fee to use 2.0.0, neither do Renter's license holders.

As I mentioned in a previous post I am planning an all-sky mosaic. I know that APP has some really good mosaic capabilities - for narrow field mosaics - but my project has two curveballs:
(1) Will APP be able to handle landscape features on the horizon? Also clouds in the sky - especially clouds that move between images?
(2) Will APP be able to handle the defects of widefield lenses - namely distortion of the frame and distortion (actually enlongation) of star images near the corners?
I will be using a 24mm lens - maybe I should crop the images to remove the star distortions. Maybe I should reproject the images into a more rectilinear shape.
