Re: [Flightgear-devel] Splitting fgdata
Hi, you can download my fgdata bundle from here [1]. You can (and should) verify it with provided hashes and signature (GPG). After that you can extract it with gitbundle (or so). The usage of that tool should be widely documented. Anyway, I like your idea (and many others here as well) because it limits the fgdata repository only to the minimum-needed files to launch FGFS.

Geoff McLane wrote: I know and read some, like Martin, want to go perhaps another direction, and that too is fine... Well, what I am (we are) having in mind is to provide some sort of a scenery root node to FlightGear in the way like you're typically referencing OpenFlight scenarios. This _might_ lead to different scenery formats in the long term but there's no reason which impedes providing such a feature by replacing directory names and STG-files with a slightly different 'metadata' infrastructure around the same flavour of BTG-files we're using today. This would at least serve as a start, simply by moving the Scenery directory logic out of hard-coded source into the Scenery itself. But until we're starting to target the directory logic, there are more pressing issues to solve Cheers, Martin. -- Unix _IS_ user friendly - it's just selective about who its friends are ! -- -- Benefiting from Server Virtualization: Beyond Initial Workload Consolidation -- Increasing the use of server virtualization is a top priority.Virtualization can reduce costs, simplify management, and improve application availability and disaster protection.

Re: [Flightgear-devel] Splitting fgdata
Hi, I have updated my little website, plus the fgdata.bundle and all checksum files and signature. I will try to add a shell script to automatically recreate the bundle including all checksum files (signature is STRONGLY not recommended with automatism because you need give the server your private key and that will compromise it).

[Flightgear-devel] Future repository for non-GPL aircraft
Something I've always thought about is an official aircraft repository that contained non-GPL2 aircraft- straight from the authors, of course. There are many aircraft for FlightGear that are not GPL-licensed (some of them very well-developed, like the Tu-154b and the MD-81), and I think it'd be best if we had an official repository for them. Currently, they are hosted on a number of unofficial hangars, decreasing their visibility and their accessibility to the end-user. This discussion has been raised before on the forums; just thought I'd mention it here. Sorry if there's been a previous conversation about this and I've resurrected a dead topic. -- Benefiting from Server Virtualization: Beyond Initial Workload Consolidation -- Increasing the use of server virtualization is a top priority.Virtualization can reduce costs, simplify management, and improve application availability and disaster protection.

Eventually, this could even develop into a PlaneStore. The models could
be used for visualization for free, but to pilot one, the users could
have to pay a (small) fee to the authors.
I'm not specifically advocating it, but with the right structure, this
could motivate plane developers, if we need that.
