Free Flight, Free Speech

Yeah, but honestly, they are pulling more or less the same procedure all the time. This only works because Thorsten is surrounded by yes-sayers and people who use the same rhetorical methods to discredit and humiliate people. If there would be say like 5 or 6 people like me or this xndr (that one ot...

@Octal450 I just read about the legoboy-thing in FG-forum and that is a real bummer. If I understood this right, legoboy was only pretending to be friendly to you in order to steal away your project from you?!?? Was that person such a good liar or are you not very good in analyzing people? I mean, g...

1) 3D is not that difficult on a basic level. I had NO 3D experience what so ever and still started to work on EC665 (FGUK). I can tell you that blender is VERY time consuming, but I managed to do changes that I wanted. Probably I needed 10 times the time a real 3D person would take, but then I con...

@IAHM-COL GPL is based on the copy left idea, but the two are not the same. There are other licenses based on copy left that differ from GPL. Maybe not important as such, but I think it would be better to discuss a concrete license which in our case would be GPL. @people I personally prefer reality ...

Josh: I personally see a contradiction in what you are saying. On the one hand you say "I did it for my own pleasure". On the other hand you seem to REALLY hate the idea that some people might "steal" your work. Maybe you can explain to me, why you would care about someone steal...

Hans05 Simple question for you.... If i offered you a bit of software and said you could copy, modify, use on another plane and distribute it as long as it was under the umbrella of Flightgear and you couldn't make any commercial gain from it... Tell us what exactly you have against this ? Simon I ...

1) Octal himself --> people get the planes from github and not from FGaddon. I just do not get that (as stated by them) they WANT to get into the FGaddon. Please do not use us to promote this nonsense. As I'm sure you "forgot" to mention - we have always stated that it will not be in FGAD...

That's why I try to remember to take copies of my (or other interesting) posts before they manage to delete them. As I wrote already somewhere else: That is sometimes not easy because their record of deletion must be around 30 secs. I wrote post, submitted, proof read my post, for some stupid reason...

Just to chip in a different view point (mine): I really like GPL and alike licenses. For people who do not want FG core developers to gain control over their aircraft, just piss off some core developer (VERY easy task) and leave doubts about whether or not everything in your project is GPL. It seems...
