Bug#846539: ITP: gwcs -- Tools for managing the World Coordinate System of astronomical data

[Ole Streicher <olebole@debian.org>]

Dear Miguel,

would you mind to put the packaging under Debian Astro team maintenance?
This would make contributions of others easier, and we would also help
you with questions and finally sponsor the package when it is ready.
