[Flightgear-devel] Release 2.4.0: call for help in PR

2011-08-01 Thread Torsten Dreyer
FlightGear 2.4.0 will be released in a bit more than two weeks from now.
To reach a broad audience, I am looking for someone to write an 
announcement, initially in English.
Also, very welcome are people able to translate this into their native 
language and distribute it to their local press/flightsim 
forum/newsletter/whatever.
The writing should be finished not later than Sunday, 14th. The actual 
distribution of the announcement is scheduled for Monday, 15th and 
Tuesday, 16th. The new files will be made available at Wednesday, 17th.

Having volunteers here is absolutely necessary. Without having anybody 
writing something, there will be no official announcement.

Thank you

Torsten

for pilots:
A new FG plane is coming with an updated flight deck, more real weather,
more fog and RVR, more realistic in dynamics.. U can still fly however u
want wherever u want.. and do it better..

for city:
The FG development is gonna kill the market, its basically a drop in
replacement for M$ sim who we licenced all out liveries and data and
everything to.  This is a step change like android is to apple.. companing a
u cumber to a turnip. oranges and pears.. same game a market changer..
recoomend Buy++ FG Sell-- Xbox

for competitors:
How did they do that.. ohh thats how they did it..

for Slashdot:
Please do not click this linkbut its basically a new flighrgear2.4 with
osg and its foss, pilot is a penguin, an apple or a ball head.

Announcement

Hello this is the FG captain speaking. I'm just informing you that on the
return flight we might be delayed. The reason for the delay is that we need
to install a new aircraft whcih is better that the one your on now..

The new aircraft will have more features for passengers such as more clouds
and urban landscape..

For us pilots up front, we'll have a more realistic cockpit, better
emulation of dodgy radio signals and less RVR with cloud density..


and other tounge in cheek..

Seriously though. I would like to create a brochure site for fg2.4..
Something that would exite my teen family and my teen spirit.. = 5
copies..So if anyone of u got an idea of creating a 2.4 release brochure
site I am in.. Main ammunition needed is screen shots

and we gset up a couple of gae instances for this ONCE and done.. noo
ongoing.. should avoid fg slashdot effect..

just my thoughts..
Pete
btw everyone is on holiday in august..
