Essentially, SF is great in that it provides a wonderful service to open source projects who have no resources. However, they aren't perfect. They have glitches, problematic unresolved issues (i.e. anonymous cvs access) and occasionally make hard to tolerate administrative decisions (i.e. forced reply to non-munging on mailing lists.) These can all be worked with if you have no other options, but in our case I decided I'd be a lot happier running my own servers. That doesn't eliminate glitches, and we probably have our own set of unresolved issues and I'm sure I make my share of interolerable administrative decisions, but I'm a lot happier with us running our own servers.

Even though it sounded good, the reservation I had was that even though we all know the connection, it is really too generic. First thing I thought of was "NewsForge". Maybe it would be good to focus on something maybe a little less clever but serves to promote the project...by making sure "FlightGear" is in the name. Kind of like the "OpenOffice.org Newsletter", except maybe just a bit more catchy than that. "MozillaNews" is another example and they even have a cute little airplane logo: mozillanews.org :-) Best, Jim ___ Flightgear-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel
