The nice thing about FlightGear is freedom. The grth_team is free to do
what they wish. They can develop what ever they want and they can support
whichever versions they deem best as long as they abide by the terms of the
gpl. It might take some time to realize this, but it is very hard to guilt
and bully open-source folks into doing something. For many of us, we put up
with too much of that in our day jobs and we come to projects like
FlightGear to outlet our talents in a more relaxed and positive environment.
The Cat is a cool airplane (I've flown in one myself when I was 5 years
old), but it seems a little childish if someone wants to threaten that they
will take all their toys and go home if we don't do things exactly as they
wish. I've heard many variants on that theme over the years. I want to do
whatever I can to create an environment where people can have a positive
outlet for their talents and energy, and I want to encourage that process as
much as possible. But if people don't feel that this is the place for them,
why make a big deal out of it and setup various ultimatums and backhanded
threats. Find someplace better, may the force be with you, thanks for all
the fish. Peace!
Curt.
