  Re: The Future of Trains
 
At last we now know why our concerns over 9v trains were never on the original LEGO Ambassadors’ Official “Issues” List. I've known the writing was on the wall for a long time now, but even with that knowledge the blow wasn't any less hard to me. As (...) (17 years ago, 1-Oct-07, to lugnet.lego)
 
  Re: The Future of Trains
 
(...) I believe this to be a very bad decision, to discontinue the 9volt system at this time. Perhaps the new electrical system will be better, but at this time, it is still in the planning stage and is curently scheduled to be out in 2009. What do (...) (17 years ago, 1-Oct-07, to lugnet.trains)

  Re: Are multiple AUTHOR tags legit?
 
I think a part should only have one AUTHOR line (although, as you say, this is not stated in the library header spec) If a part has two or more authors, it falls into one of two possibilities a) Original author and one or more part modifier/updaters (...)

(...) It does not make sense in strictly monetary terms for TLG to continue to produce a line that is not directly profitable. However, we have raised the point before that numerous intangible benefits arise from the 9V Train line. Community (...) (17 years ago, 1-Oct-07, to lugnet.lego, lugnet.trains) !
