Few of you may know that Im interested in astrology. About two months ago
I have decided to create an astrologers software for the GNOME desktop.
Since then, I have contacted Jean-André Santoni, who created a software
called [Astrognome](https://code.google.com/p/astrognome/) some years ago.
We exchanged some e-mails, and after several weeks of coding, Im proud to
present [SWE-GLib](https://github.com/gergelypolonkai/swe-glib) 1.0.1. This
is “just” a library which wraps around [Swiss
Ephemeris](http://www.astro.com/swisseph/), creating a nice GLib-ish
interface around it. See the project page and the built-in GTK-Doc document
for more information.
The astrologers software Im writing will be
[Astrognome](https://github.com/gergelypolonkai/astrognome) (thanks for
Jean-André for letting me use the name). It is currently in pre-alpha
status, but already utilizes SWE-GLib (it just cant display the results
yet). If you happen to be interested in astrology and/or Astrognome, fork
the repository and contribute! You can also contact me (or open an
enhancement issue on GitHub) if you have any ideas.
