+=== Help needed: Windows compiler updates ===
+{{FGCquote
+|1= Hello, I’m trying to extend the windows-3rd-party repository to enable builds with VS2013 and VS2015. I’ve assembled some pieces using the equivalent OSG packages, but I’m having some difficulties with the Boost version, OSG version, plus of course I need to recompile PLIB (which has an ancient Visual Studio 6!!! project) for the new compiler. I have the impression other people have already done pieces of this work, but not been able to contribute it back. So, if you’re out there using a newer Microsoft compiler to build FlightGear from next, I’d love to hear from you, and possibly steal your PLIB project, and check which Boost version you’re using. Kind regards, James
