Well this was a nice sounding alternative to the now resuscitated DPReview Astrophotography forum (and their whole site), but it never seemed to catch on. It was stillborn IMHO. There seems to be little to no interest in this Astrophotography forum on this site, so I've gone back to DPReview since they are going to stick around. Thanks for the effort, it is greatly appreciated, but almost no one showed up.
