Please do remember, everyone contributing is doing this for fun : possibly Type 2 fun, but still. It’s very easy to suggest things which are sensible, but which are in fact, /work/, not fun.

Everyone has a different idea what fun and work look like, but complaining that someone else’s definition, is the reason you won’t contribute, seems like a self-defeating argument. The thing that counts is *doing stuff* (which largely means commits / fixes to code / aircraft / docs / the website. As opposed to ’talking about stuff’ here / on the forum. So if you want to complain how bad the docs are, I’ll take your comments a lot more seriously when you’ve made 20+ commits to:

	https://gitlab.com/flightgear/documentation

Now, maybe that’s *not* fun for you, so it won’t happen, but that’s entirely under your control : no one else’s attitude is stopping you doing that :)

Kind regards,
James
