I offered to Martin to look at building a small web app that would
help with managing all the different things folks need to send to him,
something that can take the tedious admin tasks and automating them,
    he sent me some initial requirements, but this sounds like part of
the same solution, though I believe Robin Peel is the maintainer of the
latest release, but who looks after the version FG uses??

    I've only just started thinking about it, but it all started when I
sent my output from TaxiDraw, and it seemed anything that would help
make it easier, also what do we do if Martin is run over by a bus (or
other fast moving vehicle), single points of failure and so-forth...

    There seems to many different parts to the scenery stuff, I'm not
sure of how and who looks after all the different part; but I believe
someone else also looks after the AI groundnet files, and someone
different looks after the scenery object models such as airport terminal
buildings etc, and I'm not sure where things like shapefiles and
elevation data go?

     It would be nice to bring all this into central entry point, and
then send it off to its appropriate person/system.  So my intention is
not to rewrite all the end-systems (obviously), just the entry point
really.

     Does this sound like it might help, anyone else already working on
something like this, have I missed the point and got it completely
wrong, am I just rambling on too much?


    cheers
        Scott.
