+  *Note that all but the first 4 DVOs are distributed with compressed
+   FITS tables following the convention specified by Pense et al
+   (http://arxiv.org/pdf/1201.1340v1.pdf).  This convention has not
+   yet been ratified by the FITS standard, though is expected by
+   Summer 2016.  As a result, standard FITS tools will have trouble
+   reading these tables.  Two options which exist: 1) download the
+   current IPP / Ohana tools and use these either to read the tables
+   (with e.g., dvo or mana), or to uncompress the tables (with the
+   program ftable).  2) download the latest version of fpack and use
+   funpack to uncompress the tables.  In the later case, there is a
+   small inconsistency between our implementation and funpack: if
+   funpack finds the header keyword ZTILELEN and the expected output
+   table length ZNAXIS2 is < ZTILELEN, funpack will fail.  (We treat
+   ZTILELEN as a maximum block size, and so handle this case as we
+   handle the last block in a table.  The white paper is not explicit
+   in how to handle this case).  It is possible to use funpack to
+   uncompress these tables by modifying the value of ZTILELEN to match
+   ZNAXIS2.*
