I agree with you David M. on the narrow scope for post 0.7.9. We've accumilated a lot of features over the past year, and I think it would be wise to level off and clean up a lot of the known issues with our current codebase. I've sort of delegated myself to simply fixing warnings and tracking down bugs because it looks like I'll never have time to really learn to be a hardcore C++ programmer. :-) I do my best to keep everyone's code warning free. The major issues *I* have with FG right now are: - no runway lighting - no rivers, roads or railways (I haven't figure our IFR yet ;-) - not FPE-safe - threads are completely unsafe - the telnet and httpd property browsers don't understand indexed objects If we could tackle those problems, I think 8.0 would be a pretty impressive accomplishment. -- Cameron Moore [ Anything that's worth having is worth working for. ] _______________________________________________ Flightgear-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel
