Excellent news! 

As you know, we have already known Ic magnitude of all stars brighter
than 14 mag, I mean ASAS, but only stars in the Southern Hemisphere.

But after the TASS coverage is completed, we will know Ic magnitude of
all stars of the whole sky brighter than 14 mag!

Please announce us when the completed data is released.

Best regards,
