... These are ``quirks'' rather than ``bugs''. Below is a list of quirks. When loading a file and ``Reset Intensity Upon File Load'' is disabled, the intensity range of the previous image will be used. ... When moving between two images (such as when blinking, or when loading a new image), the display system attempts to retain the old image parameters (i.e. zoom box). What is retained are the corners of the zoom box measured in image pixel co-ordinates, not world co-ordinates. ...

Looking for Galactic foregrounds and CMB polarization with SPOrt Marco Tucci et al. ... Thanks to simulations of SPOrt's performance and of the astrophysical and cosmological scenario, we analyse its capability of recovering po- larized sky maps with suitable destriping techniques. We also discuss the expected Galactic foreground angular spectra, in par- ticular by computing the synchrotron spectra at lower frequencies; and the problem of foreground separation in the cosmological win- dow. ...
