Note to all contributors: Please also copy your newsletter additions to the changelog of the upcoming release: [[Changelog_3.0.0]].
With just two more weeks to go till the release of FlightGear 2.10, you are encouraged to test the release candidates. These are basically complete releases, meant for testing by a large group of people. Bugs found (and reported!) during these tests have a fair chance getting fixed. Do note that the earlier bugs are reported, the more time we'll have to fix them.
 
You can download the latest release candidate [http://www.flightgear.org/download/ from our website]. Please install it in a special directory, away from your current FlightGear.
 
Bugs should be reported [http://code.google.com/p/flightgear-bugs/issues/entry?template=Release%20candidate at our bug tracker], while questions or comments about the release candidate are welcome at [http://www.flightgear.org/forums/viewforum.php?f=68 our special subforum]].

[[File:FlightGear_forum_index_mobile_theme.png|thumb]]
To ease the use of [http://flightgear.org/forums|the FlightGear forum] on mobile (small screen) devices, a special mobile theme has been created. Basic layout works, but there are still parts left waiting for optimisation. You should see the mobile theme automatically when you visit the forum on a device with a screen size smaller than 500 pixels. You can turn back to the normal layout by clicking a link at the bottom of the page.
