You are wrong ! I have already explained to you why it's not possible. You must immediately stop to create such wrong rumor like that !

In August i told you a solution. Let the client dial into the server via a
phone-book. (radio station @ server)
Your solution is not good and the reason is simple:
Imagine that we have a user using the new FGGCom client, this new FGCom client has a phone-book who tell him which server he must contact depending on the frequency (it's clearly the solution you are suggesting)
this user try to be connected to 125.350MHz, this frequency is associated with fgcom02.flightgear.org
Well perfect it works ! but... imagine that a user with an old FGCom client try to be connected to 125.350MHz, which server has to be contacted ??? the old FGCom client cannot answer to this question because the feature is not implemented in the old FGCom.
So clearly, your solution is not "backward compatible". Your solution require to force everybody to update their FGCom client. Jomo is the first person who says it's not expected by the community ( viewtopic.php?f=32&t=21581&p=196486#p196479 ) and making FGCom not backward compatible is another important point supported by Jomo ( viewtopic.php?f=32&t=21581#p196473 )D-Leon wrote:all servers can have the same dial plan the hoel world!
it doesn't solve the problem....
the user using the new FGCom is connected on fgcom03.flightgear.org because he uses 125.350MHz
the old FGCom client will be connected on which server ? fgcom01.flightgear.org, well nice indeed it works ! the old FGCom client is able to be connected on 125.350MHz because this server has a full dialplan, but... he can't talk with the user using the new FGCom client because he is not on the same server....
Again your solution doesn't worksD-Leon wrote:yes that’s right, there is no compatibility down.
