I don't think the MP servers have to change their philosophy. I don't think both networks should be merged: it would be better to have the possibility to choose. All this is a personal opinion, but I think your MP should remain intact, with the same philosophy, and just add into IVAO the ability

Thanks for your comments and suggestions. In the first place, I need to tell you that personally, I'm a "free software guy", and I agree that the best possible solution is always the GPL license. But this is personal. BTW, you can find information about IVAO at www.ivao.aero, for those that asked
