Future Development of the DAOPHOT Crowded-Field Photometry Package

P.B. Stetson (DAO), L.E. Davis (NOAO), D.R. Crabtree (STScI)

The DAOPHOT package has been widely used by the astronomical community for
obtaining stellar photometry in crowded fields.  The first section of this
paper discusses the port of DAOPHOT to the IRAF image processing system
which we have undertaken in order to increase its availability to the
astronomical community and enhance its scientific.........
