Thank you Fredrik, for so succinctly expressing what I was feeling.  I was
building up a lot of frustration because I felt I had to make a loud noise
in order to be heard.

I realize also that discussions on the newsgroup tend to get all noisy
and go nowhere.  This is probably frustrating to work with, and I can
see the desire to go underground.  It is probably a lot easier to get
things done when working alone, not having to achieve consensus among
a diverse group as the people (left) on lugnet.cad.*.

I think the discussions should still be in the open.  No consensus needs to
be reached in .cad per se, as long as those responsible for the
administration agree -- but issues like the long-term planning,
organization, and meeting with Lego using NDAs should not be done with the
LDraw users in the dark.

Cheers,
