It's been on the back burner but now the NavCache is mostly stable, and Thomas
is taking care of the replacement GUI work, I can return to it. Actually I made
some odd progress - libSvn has become a problem to support on the Mac, so I
extended the HTTP code to become a read-only WebDAV client. It already works
(can download from terra sync repository) and it's faster to update, and uses
less diskspace (since it can assume the local files are Unmodified). But the
initial checkout is currently much slower than libSvn, which I need to fix.
But, it will also work for aircraft! So any WebDav or SVN server can be an
aircraft hangar, and update automatically. And we already support multiple
aircraft dirs, so there is not much work, to combine everything, I hope.
The metadata will then simply be the -set.xml files and thumbnail images,
extracted into a single file at the root of each 'hangar' repository.
BTW I will also upstate my wiki page with my post 2.10 plans since I agree it's
useful to share. Personally I think the wiki is better for such data,
especially if we can add a category for 'developer plans'.
