LUGNET, Peeron, Bricklink and Brickshelf have a pretty tight relationship today

Why there are duplicate set inventories on both Bricklink and Peeron?
Why the is no coordination between naming of parts between Bricklink and
Peeron?
Why there are still '?' in set database while there are existing
inventories on BL/P, so parts counts are known?
What's the difference between guide on Lugnet and BrickSet? Isn't that
just a mere duplication?
Why doesn't Brickshelf carry new catalogs? Don't they want them? Why is
Lugnet still linking to them?
Why aren't the set database/inventories publicly available for machine
processing?
Where is other language support? USA is not the only country on the
world.

I thought this were the ideas behind WorldLUG - to interconnect the LEGO
world. If the LEGOFan.net would do it, that would be great.

Today, to me, Lugnet is two things:
a) guide.lugnet.com
b) news.lugnet.com

So I don't see it as 'main hub'. And, as it was said in WorldLUG thread,
it doesn't look like it would be in the future.

I don't want to sound that negative. I would like to help, but I just
don't know how. [I have few ideas about peeron, but they seem they don't
need my witty comments :*) ]

Trimmed lots of groups and moved to .general. I agree with Terry, LUGNET is -in my world- the central place for all things LEGO. Sure, there are a lot of sites that don't get much attention from LUGNET and there are other issues, most beacuse Todd (...) (20 years ago, 12-Feb-04, to lugnet.general)
