As it turns out, the majority of those currently involved in the
discussion on this mailing list (see the thread  which Thorsten started
on AC repositories) seem not to agree with that, although it is indeed
the suggestion which I made.

Instead, Thorsten et al welcome you to use the "infrastructure" of the
official aircraft repository

  https://gitorious.org/flightgear-aircraft

to officially publish your planes as part of the Flightgear project.

If you do not wish to publish your planes under the conditions outlined
above, for instance because you don't want to use Gitorious or because
your plane is not GPL, then, so Thorsten, you will not be entitled to be
listed and tracked centrally (I personally don't agree with that).
