  |Just [https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/flightgear-devel sign up here] with these steps:
# Add you email address and pick a password, then click on [subscribe].  If you want to instantly see responses, don't choose 'daily digest'.  This option can be changed at any time.
# Wait for a confirmation email (usually < 10 seconds, and a few minutes max).  It will often be found in the spam folder.  Then click on the link in that message.
# Select your settings.
# At the bottom there are two buttons - one to cancel the process, the other to subscript.  Click on the correct one.  This step is often forgotten!

  |Then you are on the mailing list and can post messages freely (anyone bringing in conflict will be kicked off pretty fast, but otherwise there's no problem).  Then just discuss the problem - here for YASim - lay it out in as much detail as you can and show why you are interested in this.  It will really help if you are willing to work on this too, even if it not to do with the code.  Show that you want to help get this done and are not just asking for features.  That may be enough to get this implemented.  You'll find the right people there to point you to the heart of the problem.  Oh, the list is extremely slow compared to the forums, so responses can sometimes take up to a week (much longer than that and you should probe with a response to your own message).  For the FG mailing lists, it really only takes less than a minute to subscribe, and seconds to unsubscribe later on, if you so wish:<br/>

Edit:  Oh, to post a message to the list, you simply send an email to flightgear-devel att lists.sourceforge.net after you have subscribed.
