Dear all,

We are pleased to announce Aladin release 3.5

It integrates the following new points:

     * All VO button: Allows access simultaneously several data servers
       automatically discovered via the International Virtual Observatory
       registry.
     * SkyBOT: Aladin offers access to the Asteroids data base maintained
       by IMCCE (Paris).
     * VOSpec: For spectral data, Aladin can launch VOSpec tool
       (ESAC/Vilspa developement).
     * Instrument Field of view improvements: Can now be rolled
       with the mouse and loaded via an XML file.
     * User preferences: Allows users to memorize some parameters such as
       the default browser (Unix version), the default registry site...
     * VOApp interface: Aladin implements an extension of the ExtApp JAVA
       interface, called VOApp (managing images, FoVs and Tables) for
       java tool interoperability.
