I actually lost track of who is doing what in the splitting of fgdata but there is a tremendous response pointing out issues related to the split. I want to express support for the splitting team.
I support the split if only for the reason that aircraft maintainers will get commit rights to their private spheres in fg-land (if I understand things properly). With the previous monolithic fgdata only a selected group of people had commit privileges. Once the dust settles I think we will see the benefits of giving aircraft developers direct access to "their" repos. At least the need for setting up other repos will decrease (assuming that not all aircraft developers are anti-GPL) because I think one major reason for setting up external repos are (lack of) commit privileges in fgdata. For those of you who are impatient with the progress, is the now frozen fgdata unusable? Why not stay with it until the new fgdata is to your liking? I haven't pulled the latest fg-state lately so I don't know if this is possible to stay old-school?
