Hi,

I am pleased to announce the release of pywcsgrid2 0.1b1.

displaying astronomical fits images. It provides a custom Axes class
(derived from mpl's original Axes class) suitable for displaying fits
images. Its main functionality is to draw ticks, ticklabels, and grids
in an appropriate sky coordinates.
