Default OLC broken ?

There is even more income for the Segelflugszene Ltd. which is operating
the OLC:

The German Aero Club has to pay a fee per competitor which is of the
order of 2.50 Euro per competitor, and there are roughly 5000
competitors for which the German Aero Club has to pay.

Tom,

IMHO, I think there are many misconceptions about how the OLC is
funded. If they get the same amount of stipend per year from all the
advertizers on their site as they get from one software developer that
I know of. 1600 Euro per/year!

Then 30400 Euro = $40597 per should be more than enought to support
their labor and a hosting site. I really doubt that hosting is that
expensive.

It is my opinion that the developer should get busy and provide the
proper testing so the system works.

Anyhow, IMO, the new OLC is looking better and better each week I
check. Remember, this is free software, so we get what we pay for it
(yes, I know there are NACs and advertisers, but these cover hosting
costs, not labor). The developers can't afford to do big time
testing, so we get to "help" by documenting problems and sharing
workarounds until they're fixed.

Default 2K7 OLC Tutorial for the masses?

I uploaded a flight directly through OLC web page last
(Sunday, March 18th) night. This was for USA, Region
5. It was quick. It was easy. It was also the first
flight I've had to load since OLC changed their format
last Fall. It is MUCH easier than it used to be, since
you don't have to find your start and stop times and
pick where you started from.

I use version 3.4 but I haven't tried uploading to OLC with it this
year. I don't think it will work with the new version of OLC. I
haven't felt the need to upgrade from 3.4, uploading directly to OLC
seems to work great.
