Hi Martin,

I sent you yesterday some new scenery models to add and I haven't paid
attention to the emails on fg mailing list... For one year I'm working
as a scenery modeler, I didn't know all the problems you met, and I'm
deeply sorry for being so ignorant.

As a FG user, I really support the idea to have one main common scenery,
because it's more convenient thanks to Terrasync and I'm sure there are
a lot of people who think like this too. Flightgear is an open source
project and it's a good opportunity to do that.

Thank you so much for all your work and your contribution to Flightgear.
You deserve some rest and as Pedro said, I also hope one day to see you
come back, with new ideas.

I will also join the IRC discussion about that. I stopped using it a few
months ago but now, I think it's time to come back.

Thank you Martin!

Julien
