While I know this is open source , I haven't spend years of late nights 
working at this so others who
apparently lack any ambition can try to make a profit off it.If this 
person had been selling it as FlightGear , I wouldn't give it a second 
thought.I would then feel that he was packaging this as a convenience , 
and rightly asking for something in return for his troubles.But renaming 
it just makes me feel like he's trying to hide the fact that its a free 
open source project , and so definitely doesn't get my sympathy .
Cheers
