[AstroPy] Specutils: use of uncertainty in template_correlate

[Peter Dzwig]

Does specutils *require* an uncertainty in template_correlate?

I have a large set of compound spectra (whose origin comesfrom a variety 
of sources). I want to correlate these with individual spectra (possibly 
from yet other sources) that, in general, can be assumed to have 
differing (and possibly unknown) uncertainties.

In cases where there is not a readily defined uncertainty such as this 
there a way to get specutils to estimate the uncertainty itself? Or is 
another approach appropriate?

Thanks for any help
