Because without real means of development, an engine R&D project cannot progress, why not unite in order to make it move faster?
This is the idea that I recently launched among the “Pantone” community: pooling our material and financial resources, knowledge and skills to obtain real means of development and stop the DIY of “every man for himself”!
To make things easier, this project is, for the moment, centralized on the forum of this site where you will find more information and can talk to other interested people.
