Description: 
        Anonymous VOEvent client for receiving GCN/TAN notices in XML format
        
        The Gamma-ray Coordinates Network/Transient Astronomy Network (GCN/TAN,
        http://gcn.gsfc.nasa.gov) is a system for distributing astronomical alerts,
        largely focused on operations of and detections from high-energy satellite
        missions.
        
        GCN/TAN disseminates both Notices (prompt, machine-readable alerts) and
        Circulars (human-readable correspondence) through a handful of delivery methods
        and formats.
        
        This package implements a simple client that anonymously listens for VOEvent
        (http://www.ivoa.net/documents/VOEvent) XML format notices over the custom
        TCP/IP VOEvent Transport Protocol
        (http://www.ivoa.net/documents/Notes/VOEventTransport).
