Hi,

I'd like to propose a new dust map to be added to the list of mwdust maps. Skowron+ 21 published a dust map in the direction of Magellanic Clouds based on OGLE red clump stars. The map is interactively accessable via their website. The reason why I'd really appreciate to implement this dust map is that the existing maps overestimate the extinction in the direction of MCs. This can be seen if one compares the Skowron's map to SFD on the linked website. Our group just recently published a paper (Molnár+ 21), where we also have addressed this issue (see Sect 3.2.1. and Fig. 4.).
