That's completely right. 

I think that is not the problem on the PIXY only.

Now we have so many CCD images, which contain so many variable
stars. We can measure those magnitude using a software automatically,
but they will contain some errors in the results. Before reporting to
the public society, we have to delete those errors by hand.

As I wrote before, it is impossible to check all data and delete
errors within our lives :-(

So, what those who have huge amount of CCD images should do?

- Publish unchecked raw data at their own web sites, without reporting
  to the public society?

- Select some special stars, check the data of them, and report the
  magnitude of them only?

Those two are current my thoughts on the MISAO Project activity after
this.

Best regards,
