But go ahead you guys, keep making the LDraw community more and more a

Well, what we are actually trying with the new LDConfig.ldr file is getting more
colors into LDraw, colors people find in today’s set but not LDraw and IMHO it
lowers the bar for users if the colors are consistent throughout the system.
Since you havn’t complaint that there are colors missing in the current palette
I doubt that you’ll miss them once they are part of the new palette.

Remember when the LDraw community was teeming with activity? New parts were
added to the official library, not just added to the ever growing list of files
forever held in the Tracker.

Sounds you're going to apply as additional PT admin to get those parts out to
the user - I welcome that!

Almost anyone could create an LDraw oriented
utility program. The LDraw specs where aimed to simplicity and
user-friendliness. Now it seems professionality and correctness. So now only
professional programmers are able to come up with anything compliant.

Well from the user's POV (since I have no programmer's skills) I prefer a
professional one-stop-shopping-prog with all the features included instead of
L3P + L3PAdd-on + POV + LGEO with loads .ini entries and such.
