  |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/>

After lots of hard work by Torsten D, a new, more compact [[fgdata]] repository ([[base package]]) has now been created. Located at http://sourceforge.net/p/flightgear/fgdata/, this new fgdata has had all aircraft (except for the [[C172p]] and [[UFO]]) stripped from it, as well as the histories of the Scenery, AI, and Models directories<ref>{{cite web

  |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.

  |We now have a [[Integrated Qt5 Launcher|built-in Qt launcher]] that&#39;s shipped by default on Mac and will be used on other OS in the coming release. FGRun will be gone by then, therefore I&#39;m closing this issue. [...] FGRun will be gone with the next release of FlightGear, in favour of a built-in launcher. Therefore, I&#39;m closing this issue to prevent anyone from spending a lot of time on fixing things in FGRun.
