|I am going to commence reducing FGDATA this weekend. The reasons for that<br/> | |||
action have been discussed here and on the forum in epic detail, so I won't<br/> | |||
repeat them.<br/> | |||
<br/> | |||
The result will be a new and much smaller git repository and it will only<br/> | |||
have the c172p and the ufo remaining.<br/> | |||
<br/> | |||
To avoid any unnecessary extra work, I will temporarily remove all<br/> | |||
contributors with write access except 2 or three admins on Friday afternoon<br/> | |||
(Central European Time Zone).<br/> | |||

|Next, I'll do a initial commit of the base package aircraft to fgaddon/svn.<br/> | |||
Following that, I create a new git repo for a smaller git fgdata and push<br/> | |||
it to sourceforge.<br/> | |||
Finally, we re-add contributors with push permission.<br/> | |||
<br/> | |||
If anything goes wrong, the original fgdata will remain intact and can<br/> | |||
serve as a fallback. | |||

Creating a customized, mini version of FlightGear is not all that difficult, really - because it mostly means to remove anything that you don't need. | Creating a customized, mini version of FlightGear is not all that difficult, really - because it mostly means to remove anything that you don't need. | ||
