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

Id love to make 20+ commits. We are getting somewhere now I know where to
make them.

I think the best bang for the buck commits would be stuff I desperately
want to know myself like

What is the philosophy behind WS3.0 and what is its status?
How do the various rendering options work?
How can I get good results from each aicraft with the new compsitor.

If i knew that stuff Id be delighted to write it up and commit.

Sadly James you are measuring commitment to the project solely in terms of
code commits and I am unconvinced tgatbis always the correct metric.

But we have moved forwardca little and that is somewhat encouraging.

Willie Fleming
