Eventually, this could even develop into a PlaneStore. The models could be used for visualization for free, but to pilot one, the users could have to pay a (small) fee to the authors. I'm not specifically advocating it, but with the right structure, this could motivate plane developers, if we need that. -- __Pascal Bourguignon__ http://www.informatimago.com/ A bad day in () is better than a good day in {}. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Benefiting from Server Virtualization: Beyond Initial Workload Consolidation -- Increasing the use of server virtualization is a top priority.Virtualization can reduce costs, simplify management, and improve application availability and disaster protection.
