A bit of both, I'd say. The first example here was simple repository maintenance (of a shared system that I maintain and wrote). The generic files of DualControl are, well, generic and should not be duplicated - switching to the identical shared files in Aircraft/Generic/DualControl should not change the function at all. However, on the other hand I strongly prefer not to commit bigger updates to other peoples aircraft (or subsystems) without consulting them first. (Some are harder to consult that others, but they may have their reasons, though.)
