For the last 2 years fgmembers has imported and modified (improved?) every bit of content they can get their hands on in order to build a competing repository that can be advertised as better and more complete and more current,
I've had the decency to stay out of your shuttle topic....

bugman wrote in Wed May 18, 2016 4:11 pm:It's pretty simple, why does Israel not set up FGMEMBERS to have different categories:
- FGAddon mirror with no development.
- 3rd party hangar mirrors - one category for each - and no development.
- Zero-barrier development repositories as new aircraft or forks of the above.
- Encouraging new aircraft developers to contact the original aircraft authors, and help them upstream (in FGAddon or the 3rd party hangar), to hopefully form a development team around the original author. The upstream changes will then flow into the mirrors, and down into any forks.
This is very simple to change with the current design of FGMEMBERS. It would take me less than 2 hours to do With this, there will be the ability to fully automate mirror synchronisation via scripts (e.g. hourly cron jobs to very quickly mirror the changes). This goes against Israel's goal of replacing the core content infrastructure, but it does significantly improve the goals of content distribution and zero-barrier development. So why not do this? All points of conflict and resentment will then be gone.

Edit: Here is a hint - set up FGMEMBERS aircraft to have submodules inside submodules. Then there could be a master FGMEMBERS-AIRCRAFT with the submodules FGMEMBERS-FGADDON, FGMEMBERS-PAF, FGMEMBERS-FGUK, FGMEMBERS-DEVEL, etc.

Thorsten... if you had any respect for me you'd not have said some of the things you have about me... or entered into any of the many topics I'd started and created havoc.
