BTW, the main complaint against XCSoar is that it's not intuitive nor

at improvement as shown in the TopHat).


And it is totally untested for hardware it suppose to run. Tried twice
to use XCSoar and both times found out that it does not support
particular device I had (documents said it should).


Did you raise a bug report?

If not, why not, since your bug report may be the first they've heard of
the problem.

IMHO if you're going to use FOSS software rather than buying a commercial
package or writing your own, the least you should do is to report bugs
and suggest changes.
