Release Notes - V1.5-13

NDF2FITS supports the propagation of provenance information to FITS headers. There is a choice of generic propagation that attempts to propagate all the information, or to write CADC-specific headers, or to exclude provenance (the default), governed by the new PROVENANCE parameter.

NDF2FITS now handles extensions containing only NDFs by adding a dummy FITS sub-file that retains the name and type of the wrapper structure.

FITS2NDF processes SMURF-package data better, permitting a roundtrip via FITS, perserving the original data structures, save for some additional FITS headers.
