      Incorporated new filename scheme for DSKs, moved old files with old
      filenames to the misc/deprecated_kernels/dsk directory. New files are:

         Didymain: g_50677mm_rad_obj_dida_0000n00000_v001.bds
         Didymoon: g_08438mm_lgt_obj_didb_0000n00000_v002.bds

      Added kernels for ESTRACK groundstations and Earth rotation.

      Added readme files in all directories and provided coverage
      report for SPKs.


Issues fixed for this release
