First of all, I apologize for my bad English. Sorry.

The purpose of this text is to congratulate all the add-ons developers, translators manual, Orbiter-Forum administrators, donators, and general contributors that help Orbiter grow day by day, so that today we have to 4000 add-ons in the repository Orbiter Hangar Mods:cheers:.
Congratulations to all those who contributed Orbiter.
Additionally I created some greeting cards with GIMP about this event.
A good idea is that anyone who wants could create their own gifts cards to celebrate this fact.

Best regards to all.

Ah, that means there were 2258 deleted add-ons.
Only a 36% fail ratio - not bad. :)

Not a fail - just retiring old code when there's an improved newer version = WIN!

But if it's an update, you don't need to delete the old entry, just update it (release date can be updated, too), unless you support a few versions at the same time and only delete the oldest when you upload a new one.

It took me a while to figure that out with Glideslope 2.x (ahem!). I deleted the old versions a while ago!

I do not see 6258 add-ons.
The last number of add-on I see:

http://www.orbithangar.com/searchid.php?ID=[highlight]6260[/highlight]

I.e. there were 6260 different add-ons since the beginning. This number won't decrease, but the number of currently available add-ons can still be again lower than 4000, if some add-ons are pulled by their authors.

Move slow and try not to break too much.
