I understand that "Release soon, release often" is one way and even the better way to work in a OpenSource-Developement. But I agree to Gijs that it would be more than nice to add a reminder and a information about the started release procedure- we need the help of the users to find out bugs and other problems. That people don't let it commit to GIT is due to the fact, that many people already are not happy that we have about 200-300 aircrafts, where the majority of is not really usuable or draw a wrong image of FlightGear. We have discussed this in the forum and the conclusion was that we need a seperation of the Aircrafts on the Download page in several categories like Alpha, in developement, Production. The long discussed rating sheme was one of this conclusion.
