Even if there were, the best advice would be to ignore it. :)

This is a volunteer project done (mostly) for the enjoyment of the
developers, and as such many of the subprojects that are announced
here end up abandoned or stillborn.  Just do your best, try not to
blatantly step on anyone's toes, let people know what you are doing,
and don't worry too much about duplicated work.  Think of it as a
darwinian development model: the fittest work survives.

Note that this will preclude shipping it with FlightGear, which is
released under the GNU GPL.  See the COPYING file in your data
directory to see if those terms are acceptable to you.  If not, you
will have to distribute the files yourself, unfortunately.

FWIW, the Creative Commons license (like the GPL) does not prohibit
any particular users of the work either.  It only covers the
restrictions that the recipient can place upon further distribution.
