Re: [Flightgear-devel] 2.10.0 Changelog - help required
Hi Stuart, I'm currently editing the 2.10.0 Change Log, which I expect to use as the basis for the release announcement text. Just wondering, shouldn't we market it as FlightGear 2.10? The changelog is also valid for a bugfix release (2.10.1) and installer fixes (last time we had a 2.8.0.5 for Windows), so the 0 really makes no sense. 2) We normally highlight particularly exciting new and improved aircraft, but I have struggled to keep up with the rapid pace of development. Didn't the A-4 receive some extensive updating lately? :-) Cheers, Gijs -- Master HTML5, CSS3, ASP.NET, MVC, AJAX, Knockout.js, Web API and much more.

(Matthias: what HLA enhancements have been made, and can you provide a couple of suitable sentences describing them? I'm happy to wordsmith any text) - flight-path history on the map is nice, that's one of mine. - ThorstenB added the capability to save replay tapes to disk and load them, which allows nice tutorials to be created - MP dialog now has a dynamic server list, showing online servers only. - AITraffic takeoff and landings look more realistic visually, or rather no long look unrealistic :) - route-manager support for loading Navigraph procedures is more robust, but we also offer 'default' SIDs and approaches if the real procedure data is not installed. This generates a plausible straight in approach and terminal waypoints based on the route course, though it may put you into a mountain in hilly terrain. Any more detailed needed about these, ping me. The flight history is very 'screenshot-able', the other less so. James -- Master HTML5, CSS3, ASP.NET, MVC, AJAX, Knockout.js, Web API and much more.

I'll do that. 2) We normally highlight particularly exciting new and improved aircraft, but I have struggled to keep up with the rapid pace of development. Didn't the A-4 receive some extensive updating lately? :-) It did, but it's still behind the quality of many other aircraft and I'm not happy with the FDM yet, so I don't want to emphasize it too much.

For some reason I had completely forgotten about the first two, despite having used both. I'll get them added. -Stuart -- Master HTML5, CSS3, ASP.NET, MVC, AJAX, Knockout.js, Web API and much more.

Re: [Flightgear-devel] 2.10.0 Changelog - help required
Hi all, I'll translate the annoucement in French when finished. The languages were - to my knowledge - not synced for 2.10. This means the startup informations strings + the changes since 2.8 in the menus are not translated. At least not into French. A MR is pending in fgdata for French, but it does not cover every change since the source files were not synchronised.

I'm happy to merge translation changes, will do French one tomorrow. Any other volunteers for other languages? Since I only speak English it would be better if two people did each - one to author, one to review. James Olivier -- Master HTML5, CSS3, ASP.NET, MVC, AJAX, Knockout.js, Web API and much more.
