→catalog.xml in Hangar overview

:: One addition: I'm scraping openly available github repositories and re-distribute them unaltered (except some minor adjustments to prevent name clashes and allow to see which hangar a plane comes from, since Flightgear does not show this on its own). Since I'm not compiling anything (all changes are made in human-readable text files) I'm automatically distributing the license file (if present) and all changed code to anyone. So I'm really pretty damn certain that no matter WHAT licens any of those planes is under, the mere fact that it HAS to be an open-source license (since we're talking about open github repositories) AND the fact that I'm not using their work commercially eliminates issues with any license I could possibly think of.

::: Could you ask HerbyW again to be sure? I am just trying to minimise the potential for conflicts. I don't think it is a bad thing, you creating the [[Hangar catalog|catalog URLs]]. This is simply about avoiding the all-to-common inter-personal conflicts - it has nothing to do with licensing. | ::: Could you ask HerbyW again to be sure? I am just trying to minimise the potential for conflicts. I don't think it is a bad thing, you creating the [[Hangar catalog|catalog URLs]]. This is simply about avoiding the all-to-common inter-personal conflicts - it has nothing to do with licensing. Herby and the FGMEMBERS organisation might have different ideas about how their ''catalog.xml'' files are created. For example with the zip files, different development branches, versioning, etc. So if you label your file as '''the HerbyW catalog''' and '''the FGMEMBERS catalog''' on the [[Flightgear hangars]] page, then they should know about it and agree to you being a public face of their hangars. | ||
