Hi,
Some parties have asked about using the MetaFlight terrain
loader/pager I wrote years ago.  My employer says that it would be
alright to opensource this piece of software.  Does anyone have any
suggestions for good places online to opensource a project like this?
It's likely that this software satisfies too small of a niche to be
included anywhere in OSG, but that would be fine by me.

For some background, I wrote this software so that I could page in
MetaFlight terrain databases without processing them to add PagedLOD
nodes.  It uses libxml2 to parse a MetaFlight file (.mft) which
contains a description of the terrain layout.  Then you updated it
with one or more eyepoints each frame and it continuously loads and
unloads the appropriate tiles.  It does not support the entire
MetaFlight spec, just common functionality that I use; maybe the
opensource community will improve it.
