Changes for version 0.064_01 - 2014-06-30

  • Add TLE pass variant PASS_VARIANT_TRUNCATE, which truncates passes to the beginning and end times given to pass(), rather then computing complete passes (and therefore requiring the satellite to rise and set). Expose Space Track time formatting and decoding routines for possible use by subclasses. The key routines __to_json() and __from_json() are still undocumented and considered highly experimental, though. Sorry. Add OID 00694 to Astro::Coord::ECI::TLE canned magnitudes.
