{{FGCquote|1= As many people have noticed, the v3.6 release has been slightly delayed. The main reason is that too many key developers have been out of town for work or holiday this month. We are currently hoping for a mid-September release. We will post further updates once our release manager returns and we can regroup from all the end of the summer (northern hemisphere) :-) activities. Thank you, Curt.|2= {{cite web  | url    = http://sourceforge.net/p/flightgear/mailman/message/34407279/  | title  = <nowiki>[Flightgear-devel] Release v3.6 update</nowiki>  | author = <nowiki>Curtis Olson</nowiki>  | date  = Aug 26th, 2015  }}}}

* The base package has been reduced in size to 1.3GB and moved to  http://sourceforge.net/p/flightgear/fgdata/.  All aircraft except the c172p and ufo have been removed.
* All core repositories have been moved to sourceforge.  They can be found at https://sourceforge.net/projects/flightgear/


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

  |FlightGear has completely moved all its gitorious based material over to< sourceforge.  But it's nice to know a historical record will remain at gitorious.org as well as several other public locations not to mention on a myriad of personal computers.

{{FGCquote
  |I have just added hooks to our our flightgear, simgear and fgdata<br/>
repositories that send a message to the flightgear-commitlogs mailinglist<br/>
for every commit (hopefully).<br/>
<br/>
Those who are subscribed to that list should get an e-mail for every<br/>
commit. It will include the commit log message, the diff and more.
