OLC and Cambridge 10/20/25 support ending

I'm willing to bet that a vast majority of 10/20/25 owners would be
happy to have a new (free) windows-based utility to enable them to
continue posting their flights on the OLC.
The vast majority of owners want a solution now, but choosing the best
technical solution often isn't a popularity contest. You would win
that bet, but your bet doesn't matter - Cambridge owners now want a
solution that works now, and today they do not care about the problems
they will face in a few years. Just like in 1996 they didn't care yet
about the problems they face today. I see it as our responsibility
(we = hackers like you and me) to ensure that the next time, the
problem doesn't exist.
Untrusted? Sure, you could say that. Would a flood of apps built by
every Tom, Dick and Harry from open source be any more trusted?
Absolutely not!
That kind of suggestive rhethoric is dull. What does Tom, Dick and
Harry have to do with this?
From your point of view, you are the most trustworthy person in the
world. But that is just your point of view. From my point of view,
you are not, because I don't know you.
From my point of view, all open source developers are more trustworthy
than you, because I can verify that their programs are free of
malware. And I often do.
