Whereas there's little use of TerraSync without the FG flight sim,
there are plausible usage scenarios for FGCom _without_ FlightGear,
let's say for ATC.  Therefore, while it makes sense to package FGCom
alongside with FlightGear for the releases, I'm having mixed feelings
about incorporating FGCom into FlightGear core because this would
either:
a) require to bear all the ballast of FG even if the only thing you'd
   like to have is FGCom, if FGCom development moves into FG or
b) carry the risk of FGCom-in-FG diverge from standalone FGCom.

Cheers,
        Martin.
