  Re: Is there interest in a raytracing challenge?
 
(...) Hmm... interesting. Count me in! :) -Matthew J (20 years ago, 3-Feb-06, to lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  my thoughts on the 2006 line so far
 
This is based on what Brickset lists under "2006" Lego really needs to make less moulds and in particular, less new moulds. They keep making new moulds for sets instead of re-using their old ones. Some lines are worse for this than others. Here is (...) (20 years ago, 11-Feb-06, to lugnet.general)

  Re: MDP Status
 
(...) Actually, I doubt LUGNET is the only place LEGO looks for talent, or that it's the only place that Steve might have suggested folks from. It *is* where Steve spends a lot of on-line hours, but there are four other MUPs in the original group (...) (20 years ago, 10-Feb-06, to lugnet.robotics)
 
  Re: MDP Status
 
(...) But do you deserve to be angry? Many companies hire people based on referrals from people they already employ. References & networking make the business world go 'round - not just MDP. In your example, the boss is taking less of a risk in (...) (20 years ago, 10-Feb-06, to lugnet.robotics)
