This topic raises a point about distribution of non-critical files. For example, my 1049H Constellation has a number of large files that aren't necessary for flying the plane. I have source PSDs for livery-makers, and Yakko's terrific How-to for flying the 1049H. Both are directly beneficial to interested Flightgear users, but not essential, and both sets are large files (10MB or so each) that would bloat the plane's base distribution. Currently these are maintained and available at my home site.
Provided that all materials are GPL, it would be nice to attach them somehow to the plane as a kind of optional secondary download, a sort of 'developers kit'. Does this concept make any sense? Would it be too seldom-used to be worth it? Is it even possible? Or are others already way ahead of me on this kind of idea? I'll stop cluttering up the bandwidth now. :) -Gary ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ RSA(R) Conference 2012 Save $700 by Nov 18 Register now http://p.sf.net/sfu/rsa-sfdev2dev1 _______________________________________________ Flightgear-devel mailing list Flightgear-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/flightgear-devel
