  Description     : Framework for plotting astronomical and geospatial data

WCSAxes is a framework for making plots of Astronomical data in
Matplotlib. It is affiliated with the Astropy project and is intended for
inclusion in the Astropy package once stable.

I am packaging this mainly as an example for a small Debian packaging
tutorial/workshop for astropy affiliated packages [1].

It will maintained within the Debian Astronomy Working Group. A git
repository will be created on alioth [2].

Best regards

Ole
