But the whole discussion and the issues have been just symptoms of following problems in my eyes. And I'm very sure, if we don't solve that we will have such a discussion in the near future again! 1.) to large FGdata-repo/ not transparent rules for committing 2.) aircraft rating scheme and Download page 3.) apparently inconsequent handling when licences has been violated (intended/unintended) about 1.) We really need a splitting of FGdata! Even if FGdata is the place for developement I don't see the need to download 10GB to have more than 200 aircraft in developement most of us not interested to improve due to different reasons. It has been already discussed here: http://wiki.flightgear.org/FlightGear_Git:_splitting_fgdata and in the moment it sounds good to me when it will really work as described. about 2.)as the Download page will now use the rating system I hope this will solve this problem. We should really not ignore the fact that a lot of users will measure the quality of our simulator with the quality of aircraft we offer. We are a flightsimulator, it is all about flying and not only just showing nice looking aircraft-model. about 3.)already part of the planned splitting Fgdata. Such issues may happen due to different reasons (intended, unintended...), but needs some better handling. In the previous discussion about the current licence issues I had the feeling that the issue is underestimated and not taken seriously, but I might be wrong here.
