Description

The wcs_project function in ccdproc (v2.0) currently only supports reproject_interp for reprojection.

From a quick look at the sources it would seem that to use reproject_exact all I need to do is change the two calls to reproject_interp to reproject_exact, passing the same parameters.

Am I missing something or would this work?

If so I'm surprised that wcs_project doesn't support an argument to determine which of the reproject reprojection functions should be used. Could that be added (as an optional argument, defaulting to reproject_interp for backwards compatibility)?
