        Main Philisophy
        ===============
        
        This document desribes the main philisophy why xppkg was created.
        
        Main Pain
        =========
        
        Installation of Scenery, Aircraft, NavData, Plugins are a pain. The sim-community is flooded with good (and bad)
        quality resources, and arranging and browsing all sites to find your own golden installation is always a pain.
        After returning to X-plane from the FS world after a few years, nothing changed.
        
          * XPpkg is a hassle-free X-Plane package installer, much alike pip in python:
            to download, install and upgrade various X-Plane packages from various internet sources.
        
          * XPpkg for developers of packages for X-Plane should be a hassle free way to distribute their packages
        
        Inspiration
        ===========
        
        Main inspiration comes from my work within the \*NIX world (That is essential Linux and the \*NIX with the best graphical
        UI on top: Mac OSX) and python.
        
        Python Package Management Examples:
        
        * pip installer for Python http://www.pip-installer.org/
        * easy_install for Python
        * PyPI is an important integration for both
        
        Various Linux Examples:
        
        * apt, apt-get, aptitude, dpkg originally created for Debian/GNU Linux
        * rpm
        
        Mac OSX Package Management Examples:
        
        * Macports (http://www.macports.org), Homebrew (http://mxcl.github.com/homebrew/)
        
        Other Examples:
        
        * rubygems (http://rubygems.org/)
