  Description     : the JSBSim flight dynamics model

JSBSim is an open source FDM that compiles and runs under many
operating systems, including Microsoft Windows, Apple Macintosh,
Linux, IRIX, Cygwin (Unix on Windows), etc. The FDM is essentially the
physics/math model that defines the movement of an aircraft, rocket,
etc., under the forces and moments applied to it using the various
control mechanisms and from the forces of nature. JSBSim has no native
graphics. It can be run by itself as a standalone program, taking
input from a script file and various vehicle configuration files. It
can also be incorporated into a larger flight simulator implementation
that includes a visual system. The most notable examples of the use of
JSBSim are currently seen in the open source FlightGear, Outerra, and
OpenEaagles simulators. JSBSim models the aerodynamic forces and
moments by the classic coefficient buildup method.

Hi,

A long time ago, you expressed interest in packaging jsbsim. Unfortunately,
it seems that it did not happen. In Debian, we try not to keep ITP bugs open
for a too long time, as it might cause other prospective maintainers to
refrain from packaging the software.

This is an automatic email to change the status of jsbsim from ITP
(Intent to Package) to RFP (Request for Package), because this bug hasn't seen
any activity during the last 12 months.

If you are still interested in packaging jsbsim, please send a mail to
<control@bugs.debian.org> with:

 retitle 724061 ITP: jsbsim -- the JSBSim flight dynamics model
 owner 724061 !
 thanks

It is also a good idea to document your progress on this ITP from time to
time, by mailing <724061@bugs.debian.org>.  If you need guidance on how to
package this software, please reply to this email, and/or contact the
debian-mentors@lists.debian.org mailing list.

Thank you for your interest in Debian,
