I have received and applied patches from several places recently. Make sure
that patches are not accidentally reversed.

It is very important that patches - and *very*especially* **any** patches to
FGPropagate - go through the proper channels, tested thoroughly using
several specified scripts on the JSBSim side. All patches must be posted
and/or explained on the JSBSim developer list first prior to being
committed.

I'm not writing this to be heavy-handed, but to avoid problems going
forward, based on past experiences. Sometimes I will see problem reports in
various places and be working locally on the best approach for a fix. So,
merging *from* the flightgear tree to JSBSim might cause problems when I try
to apply my (or another JSBSim developer's) fixes.

So, let's please funnel ALL problem reports about JSBSim issues to the
JSBSim developer list OR via the bug reporting tool:

https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?atid=119399&group_id=19399&func=browse

Thanks - and sorry if this comes across as rude or controlling. It's not
meant to. 

:-)
