For the moment, the really strange thing is that the mac version has another numbering scheme. If we are pushing for a more frequent release rate, maybe the -rcX thing should be skipped and fix bugs from release to release. That also means that the aircraft list should be frozen in order to capitalize on experience. -Fred -- Frédéric Bouvier http://my.fotolia.com/frfoto/ Photo gallery - album photo http://fgsd.sourceforge.net/ FlightGear Scenery Designer ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ SF.Net email is Sponsored by MIX09, March 18-20, 2009 in Las Vegas, Nevada.
