Hi Tom,

I pointed to this paper on the list two days ago in the message
"Russian: A preliminary reconstruction of the orbit of the Chelyabinsk
Meteoroid byJorge I. Zuluaga & Ignacio Ferrin".

Now they have more information about the entry trajectory, due at least
to contributions to Stefan Geens site, I think they will be able to
write an updated version of the paper with more narrow constraints on
the likely orbit the asteroid was on.
