No SquawkBox 3 on IVAO

I am abandoning plans to get SquawkBox 3 to work on the IVAO network. All my attempts to work with the IVAO HQ have been frustrated by a complete lack of response from the people that manage that network. This is regrettable since I want SquawkBox to be used by as wide an audience as possible. From the inception of my development on this project I have endeavoured to work closely with all existing networks. Contrary to some reports, work on SquawkBox 3 is controlled only by me and is in no way affiliated with any particular network.

As for other existing networks, SquawkBox 3 will almost certainly run on VATSIM. I am also in discussions with the technical people at Flight Project International to see if there is some way to integrate SquawkBox 3 into their existing infrastructure. SquawkBox 3 will not run on the NVAS network.
