Re: [Flightgear-devel] Flightgear and IVAO

[Pep Ribal]

Thanks a lot John, be sure I'll start shooting questions really soon. ;) I didn't know about the proprietary protocol of VATSIM being such a problem. Fortunately I've talked to the IVAO dev team, and despite their protocol is private as well, they keep their old protocol which they can make available to me. They have no plans to remove this functionality from the servers, so we really can develop a free software tool that uses this protocol. Thanks once more. Pep. (by the way, I found your 747 project really impressive!! congrats!)

Hi Pep, Over the past few years we've tried to work with the VATSIM folks to develop a similar interface, but the GPL license an their proprietary stuff kept getting in the way. Perhaps with IVAO it might be different.... At any rate, I've been with FG for several years now and would welcome such an interface. (see the 747 project page on the FG website). Curt and I have taken the sim to several shows -- a real-time, live interface to other players/controllers would have been a show stopper. I'll be glad to help and try to be your mentor, especially in the communications area; so if you have any questions, need some code snippets, fire away with your questions.
