Fanne,
Welcome back.. <!--emo&:rocker--><img src='style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rocker.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='rocker.gif' /><!--endemo-->
So far I have found http://www.journalofastrology.com/index.htm to be one of the better websites. Sri K N Rao has done lots of research on this. He also participates in a yahoogroup called "JyotishGroup". There are other yahoogroups called vedic-astrology which are also pretty decent.
Sri Rao wants a proper curriculum to be introduced and a proper certification process to avoid such thugs who exploit this ancient science to fool people. I think Sri M M Joshi approved Jyotish as a subject, but our 'secular' govt has different ideas, i hear. Its really sad. This is a huge industry which is going to survive with or without govt help. With a proper institutional support, this can be developed a lot - with lots of research money and a proper certification process - but hinduphobia just reigns supreme these days.
