Re: [Flightgear-devel] 3D model for the F-15
Is there anywhere a list of work in progress just to avoid duplicates ? Note that it's no big issue for the Hornet as I made it for another sim anyway ;) And to answer the question, I want to release the models with a license that would prevent any commercial or military use. I think Creative Commons can do that but if you know anything else better ...

Even if there were, the best advice would be to ignore it. :) This is a volunteer project done (mostly) for the enjoyment of the developers, and as such many of the subprojects that are announced here end up abandoned or stillborn. Just do your best, try not to blatantly step on anyone's toes, let people know what you are doing, and don't worry too much about duplicated work. Think of it as a darwinian development model: the fittest work survives. I want to release the models with a license that would prevent any commercial or military use. I think Creative Commons can do that but if you know anything else better ... Note that this will preclude shipping it with FlightGear, which is released under the GNU GPL. See the COPYING file in your data directory to see if those terms are acceptable to you. If not, you will have to distribute the files yourself, unfortunately. FWIW, the Creative Commons license (like the GPL) does not prohibit any particular users of the work either. It only covers the restrictions that the recipient can place upon further distribution.

Re: [Flightgear-devel] 3D model for the F-15
Don't get me wrong, I don't want to put a lot of restrictions to the right to distribute and modify. In that sense GPL or OpenSource type of licence suit me. I just do not want people to make money out of my work (except maybe for the *cost* of the media used to distribute), when I am not asking for any money. Commercial software is OK for me, but if I want to go down that path, I'll set up my own company. Also I do not want this work, that I do for entertainment, to be used for Real Life (TM) military purposes. The latter is a moral position. If that means I'll have to make a separate package, so be it. But I am still willing to distribute for the community to enjoy AND tweak at their will as long as those two choices are respected.

[Flightgear-devel] up-to-date-version for windows?
Dear Group! Few weeks ago I started again using FlightGear. My first excitement is done now, still I want to stay with the community as player but also as developer (in my small terms, e.g. blendermodels). The main problem I face is, that although there are constantly done changes, bug-fixes and add-ons, I am bound to windows on my powerful computer and want/have to use it for FlightGear. My question is: Does anybody know/has done/has an idea of using CVS under Microsoft(tm) Win(tm)do(w)(tm) XP(tm)? Thx in advance, Yours Carsten - Take Surveys. Earn Cash.

Hi, compiled windows executables of the actual cvs you can find on ftp://ftp.ihg.uni-duisburg.de/FlightGear/Win32/ You can compile flightgear e.g. with msvc-express, there is a link at http://wiki.flightgear.org/ to a step by step instruction by olaf flebbe: http://www.oflebbe.de/oflebbe/FlightGear/index.html Maik Carsten Vogel schrieb: Dear Group!

Well, you cannot prevent others from making money out of your work if you licensed your work under GPL. What you can do though, is make life extremely difficult for them. This is one of the reasons why my models are in pieces. You can bring this a step further by using multiple modelling formats. Essentially, this means your models would only work with FlightGear. Also I do not want this work, that I do for entertainment, to be used for Real Life (TM) military purposes. The latter is a moral position.
