    Yes, I should have mentioned one of the goals is pure Rust - I started in a Windows dev environment, and never could get projects like https://github.com/mindriot101/rust-fitsio to run natively; for now I’m hoping to maintain the cross-platform flexibility for this project, but I’ll definitely look into Marlu more, if it provides enough benefit, it’s easy enough to add that constraint

    I'm working on a pure Rust approximation of astropy. Up til now, I was able to recreate the intent by looking at an external API, but I'm moving on to functionality that I don't understand enough to implement without basically copying the code. Astropy uses the BSD-3 license, and it wraps the ERFA library which uses a custom license. My project currently uses the MIT license. My PR is here - my question is have I attributed everything correctly, or is there anything I need to change for everything to be above-board?
