Mark,

I have reviewed VG_2802 and VG_2803 (although perhaps not in as much 
detail as I would have liked, but there are a number of Cassini reviews
pressing as well). Anyway, the volumes look pretty good for
the most part. Appended are my comments, some of which fairly
significant.

VG_2802 Review
==============

- Does not seem to be ISO_9660 compliant. I had some trouble opening files
  directly from the CD. It worked when I copied the files onto hard disk 
  though.

- VECTORS/B1950/US2VE1LB.L and VECTORS/J2000/US2VE1LB.L should be
  US2VE1.LBL. These files are also missing CR characters. These files also
  have the incorrect keyword NODAL_RINGRESSION_RATE.

- CATALOG/REF.CAT has non-ASCII characters in NICHOLSONETAL1990 entry.

- RAWDATA/RAWDATAP.FMT has missing CR/LF at line 619.

- *TIME label values should remove the trailing Z.

- AAREADME.TXT, lines 429-430 are confusing.

- In many labels you have the value 'N/A', I believe the preferred method
  is "N/A".

- You have some files with the extension .FIT. While this is not a reserved
  extension, you might have some users who will think it's a FITS file.

- In the DOCUMENT directory, you have several labels that have 
  ^ASCII_DOCUMENT that point to all of the Postscript figures in addition
  to the ASCII text. I would discourage this usage. Use instead
  ^ASCII_DOCUMENT to point to just the .ASC file and ^PS_DOCUMENT to
  point to the Postscript figures.
