I think it would be a great feature to be made available to the entire FG community. However with a production use comes the problem of positively identifying a user on a MP server, so that no 2 users can have the same callsign.
So KoverSrac and I think that an authentication system would be useful. Authenticated users could have their callsign protected and have their flights tracked (for those who don't know what I am talking about visit: http://fgfs.i-net.hu ).
A few questions arise, first what do you guys think about an authentication system, second what would be the best way of implementing it within FG and third would it be limited to be used by the tracking system or as a way of moderating the mp servers.
The online flying has become extremely popular over the last few month as the load on the available servers can show ;-P.
Sound off!
