John Stinstrom's new object libraries on AVSIM

Right about end of April, John went thru and posted about 7-8 files on AVSIM containing the common object libraries that we are familiar with, as they are commonly used in pretty much all MAIW packages. However I wanted to ask if there are any differences.

1. The object libraries themselves are named differently (not MAIW_ABO for example), but is it same to assume that the objects themselves still have the same GUID? So MAIW scenery created would still show up if these object libraries were installed, say in place of MAIW_ABO and GGSE?

2. Are there any other improvements? I know that one or two packages have a few more objects included.

3. Any reason to suspect these would show up in P3D? If not, can we try to convert them?

I have converted about a dozen of the most common MAIW libraries now... however the MAIW_ABO library is one that would only convert to FSX, and even in doing that I had to convert it first to XML. But I am seeing at least some of the object show up now. More testing is needed.
