6 years ago yes, I’d absolutely like to chat about that!
I hadn’t thought about that specifically but I was definitely hoping to get some pointers to make the library more general and less home-made :)

Hey @cmateu https://github.com/cmateu 👋
Have you thought about the possibility of making Astropy coordinate frames http://docs.astropy.org/en/latest/coordinates/index.html for the streams? We support most possible astronomical coordinate transformations (including velocity components / proper motions!), like galactic, ICRS, ecliptic, etc. For stream frames, I have a few examples in gala http://gala.adrian.pw/en/latest/coordinates/index.html for Pal 5, GD-1, Sagittarius, Orphan.
Let me know if you'd like to chat!
