Spectro-polarimetry

The issue of doing spectro-polarimetry with FIES is rather unclear. N. Piskunov reports that there is actual a polarimeter build and qualified for the use in collimated beam. However, there is no real space in the rotator to install a collimator and it is not clear if it works in a convergent beam. Also, it is not clear if any other solutions are possible.
