Wow, I've been so out of the loop up to a month and a half ago that
had no idea the releases were being built on PLIB CVS. But
yesterday I came across a post I made in late February asking
whether Tiago Gusmão's texture compression stuff had made it into
plib or not, and his replying that after over a month he was still
having trouble getting folks on the plib development list to reply.
How much extra work would this mean *after* putting it into SimGear?
Does plib have a high patch submission rate, thus requiring that
someone would have to duplicate the efforts of whoever evaluates
and commits patches for plib?
