Re: The endless influx of low-quality, low-realism, quantity-over-quality aircraft into FGAddon

I made 100 aircrafts called blue-yellow-glider[1-100], they are all
different and should be added as separate aircrafts, also I rate them 6/5

What I mean by this is why in the hell you consider FGAddon being a sandbox
the only viable option? I would perfectly understand it had it been the
only easy option to download/host aircraft. Nowadays there are more
tutorials on how to download aircraft from github gitlab etc. and I believe
almost everyone has flown in aircraft downloaded from outside the FGAddon.
By having *any* kind of guidelines for FGAddon other than "do whatever you
want #freedom as long as GNU GPL' it would dramatically improve the end
user experience. Someone made some Code of Conduct of FG a few days ago
where it is PRECISELY differentiated between the contributors/users role in
the project. Some of you for some reason can not see the end user
perspective, despite the fact I clearly stated it in the first post.

Let's be real, no one will do anything about the issue whatsoever. You know
what? Give me the commit access to FGAddon, I can rate the aircrafts, all
of them. I have no heart whatsoever, I go by guidelines only, even if it
means giving 1/5 rating.

If we want a rating to solve the issue:
1. Ratings have to be visible on the aircraft browsing page, not only after
clicking it.
2. There needs to be a visible label whether the aircraft is Yasim or
JSBSim. One could argue they won't understand, trust me when they see
aircraft with (Yasim) in the name after some time they understand to avoid
it.
3. New rating requirements need to be made, focusing more on realism, even
if current 4/5 FDM aircraft will become 2

FGAddon on flightgear wiki is regarded as the official FlightGear Hangar.
Why do you think turning it into a complete sandbox is a viable option?
