>> The "DR400 Guide"  (Aircraft/DR400/DR400 Guide.pdf) 
>> commited in this has a non-GPL compatible license ("All rights reserved").

A nice example of some small words can do. I would have never noticed as I 
would  "all rights" misinterprete as simple copyright at first glance. *blush* 
It isn't just a simple copyright....


I'm a bit more concerned about the commit description. 
First it doesn't make sense to me (there was only two contributor ever who 
committed changes to the DR400 in FGData - who the hell then broke anything?! 
E. BARANGER or Thorsten Brehm? *confused*).

Then the description doesn't list was had been changed. So it seems to be just 
a quite meaningless description attacking someone... :-(

That's something that I have seen quite often by some contributors, that they 
aren't able to tell what they have exactly changed. But that's the meaning of 
the commit log-  Keywords and short exact description would help to see quick 
what had changed and would invite more to test and try. No need to write a 
book!  
So bugs and mistakes could be more followed easily.
