[BAA Comets] Comet projects

[denis buczynski]

Hi Roger, 

There will have to be a big discussion about the future and the direction of the Comet Section after Jon's announcement.This may not be the best time to be introducing new programmes and projects for adoption in the Comet Section. Just my thoughts for now.
Denis

>- comets passing through minimum phase angle
>- comets prone to outburst
>- T3 comets
>- returning comets not yet observed
>- SOHO comets
