See attached forwarded message.  Someone is selling FlightGear
on ebay.  This time there is no mention of our project name, they have
changed the name and are calling it "Pro Aircraft Flight Simulator".  In
addition, they are using the same sleazy tactics of selling a digital
download, not actual media ... for all I know, they tell their
suckers/customers to go download it from our own server after the buyer
pays the money. 
         

 
Did we come to any concensus last time we discussed this? Seems to me
that changing the name is a big no-no. Also, I seem to recall something
in the license that says that people have to be informed about where
they can download the code/software ... ? No? I don't have a problem
with someone packaging up the software nicely and adding a printed
manual or whatever and selling that, when nothing is hidden from the
buyer. But this - once again - seems like a shady attempt to extract
money from the unwary or uninformed.
