As we noted before, some of the objids of the BCGs are "shorter" than it should be. This is because part of the DR7 catalogue I was using are from an earlier rerun of the SDSS pipeline (before 1/2009). Although the DR7 is officially released by the end of 2008, some reprocessing was still in progress after 1/2009. Thanks to Brian Yanny who told me that the latest DR7 catalogues all have their final rerun finished and the objids are finalised. Therefore, I updated the BCGs' objids. Note that this only affect a small portion of the BCGs. Also, some spectroscopic redshifts are added to those BCGs after updating the objids.
Per Heinz Andernach's suggestion, I added a "name" column to the cluster catalog. The name is by the convention GMBCG J RA DEC. For the RAs and DECs, I keep both of them to 5 digits.
The new catalogs are ready for downloading from the webpage.
