I am really enjoying the beautiful images I have downloaded through KStars!
I would like to share them with the world; can I publish a calendar featuring
these images (or are there any usage restrictions on the images)?
It depends on the image, but many of the images restrict against commercial
usage. The Image Viewer's statusbar will usually contain information about
the image's copyright holder, and what usage restrictions apply. As a rule of
thumb: anything published by NASA is in the public domain (including all HST
images). For everything else, you can pretty safely assume that the images
may not be used commercially without permission. When in doubt, contact
the image's copyright holder directly.

Can I help contribute to future versions of KStars?
Yes, definitely! Introduce yourself on our mailing list: (kstars-devel AT
kde.org). If you want to help with the coding, download the
latest KStars Git version of the code and dive right in. There are several
README files in the distribution that explain some of the code's subsystems.
If you need ideas of what to work on, see the TODO file. You can submit
patches to kstars-devel, and feel free to post any questions you have about
the code there as well.
If you are not into coding, we can still use your help with i18n, docs, AstroInfo
articles, URL links, bug reports, and feature requests.
