;-D Just in case others don't realise, Brede was is the original author of both the original and the new OpenFlight plugin. The original OpenFlight plugin is historic artifact as it was the first contribution from the community to the OpenSceneGraph, and was contributed 6 years ago, pretty well to the day in fact. Brede is very much one of the early adopters of the OpenSceneGraph, while very imature I guess it showed just enough potential for his boss to let him experimental this little project. The contribution of the OpenFlight plugin is certainly one of most significant points in the projects history, if it weren't for this old plugin the vis-sim industry would not have have embraced the project as enthusastically as it has done. Ever since this early contribution, the contributions have kept on coming, first a trickle right up to the mature river we see today. Would much of this river have been diverted if it weren't for this first trickle? We will never know, its kinda unnerving even speculating... So it came to pass, the OpenSceneGraph grew up and became a success, and Brede gave life to a new userper to the OpenFlight crown, and has even put the boot in the old OpenFlight for good measure :-) I think it only proper that we should find a little display frame for the old stalwart, show it a little respect for the its long service and the positive role its had in the OpenSceneGraph story.
