How about a variation on Camelot--CameLUG?? What about a simple name taken from the address? If the site address is www.legocastles.org, the site name could be LegoCastles.org. Studland doesn't sound too good, because it may appear on search engines (...) (25 years ago, 23-Jan-00, to lugnet.castle)

Ok, I lied. I am missing one essential component. I absolutely need a copy of DLL.EXE that runs under Windows. I could also use a compiled copy of the latest version FIRMDL.EXE (I only have version 1). So far my tests are very encouraging. After (...) (25 years ago, 22-Jan-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
