I think the others have said that there's no immediate need for it but I can't see how it could be a bad thing. While it may not be needed now, it offers more options and possibilities and should be possible with a low overhead. As long as any scheme could be easily integrated, without any maintenance overhead, it sounds like a good idea, to me - if someone wants to do it:) LeeE _______________________________________________ Flightgear-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel
