  Re: Database Piece Count
 
(...) Which is why I am thinking, let it be mailed to some lucky DB admin for review... (do you guys take turns watching, or is it whoever gets to fix it first, or what?) rather than posting it. That completely reuses the componentry that exists (...) (23 years ago, 25-Jul-01, to lugnet.admin.database)
 
  Re: Database Piece Count
 
(...) ahhh... a reason like the if you just mailed it to the group, someone would have to auth the message? :) though that might be a good thing, if we allow people to put in just any email as the "from", we'd want to make sure that it's a valid (...)

  Re: Database Piece Count
 
(...) A waste of *computing* resources yes. But not a waste of development resources, because it's already done. (reuse what exists before embarking on development of new, unless there is some huge reason not to reuse (1) ) Note that the current (...) (23 years ago, 25-Jul-01, to lugnet.admin.database)
 
  Re: Database Piece Count
 
(...) could do that, but assuming that the cgi is run on the lugnet server, it'd be a waste of resources to do cgi-to-smtp-to-nntp, when the cgi could just inject the message to the NG. (...) nod... though if we limit this form to members only, (...) (23 years ago, 25-Jul-01, to lugnet.admin.database)
 
  Re: Database Piece Count
 
(...) Could do... I don't think the remailer is set up that way currently though. Why don't you hack around with a form that uses it and see if you can autopost to lugnet.test by mailing to the news gateway or something? What Todd did for me is just (...)

  Re: Database Piece Count
 
(...) how about just have it autopost to the admin.db newsgroup? that way it's on record, anyone can see what's been submitted, etc...? (23 years ago, 25-Jul-01, to lugnet.admin.database)

  Re: something odd about the links here
 
(...) looks like it to me... once I try it without the v=n, it does work ok... doh! (23 years ago, 25-Jul-01, to lugnet.admin.database)
 
  something odd about the links here
 
Go to this page ... (URL) note the links under the piece count ("Lego", "Studios", and "?"). Try clicking on one of them. I think its trying to take me to notes about the generic category (e.g. "Studios") where no such page exists. I think the "v=n" (...) (23 years ago, 25-Jul-01, to lugnet.admin.database)
 
  Re: Database Piece Count
 
(...) I agree, such a form will definitely generate more input, since it'll be easier for people to submit data. Maybe make it a "member only" feature, that way we can be sure where it came from... Of course, I wouldn't want the updates to be done (...) (23 years ago, 24-Jul-01, to lugnet.admin.database)
 
  Re: Database Piece Count
 
(...) I propose that a "submission form" be created for data to be added to the Guide. I hold no guilt over suggesting this because I am blissfully unaware of the work that would be involved ;] There are a lot of times I'm foraging around in the (...)

In lugnet.trains, Frank Filz writes: <snip> Agreed. The current organization was done by a non trainhead, IMHO. I made some suggestions in the past on this topic as well. (23 years ago, 24-Jul-01, to lugnet.admin.database, lugnet.trains)
 
  Re: new train cars, MOT or 9V cars
 
(...) I'd very much like it if the train portion of the database were modified to be more generally usefull. My organization would be something like: trains - push - engines (includes MOT) - train sets - 4.5v - engines - sets - accessories - 12v - (...)

  Re: new train cars, MOT or 9V cars
 
(...) Even though it plainly states "My Own Train" on the box? Perhaps they intend it to be a whole train that you customize, not just the engine. "I'll take a large blue engine, blue tender, 6 hopper cars and a caboose please" (23 years ago, 24-Jul-01, to lugnet.admin.database)
 
  Re: new train cars, MOT or 9V cars
 
(...) I think the MOT's are only classified as the train locomotives that you can decide the colors of. The train cars are MOT cars, but only one color. Josh (23 years ago, 24-Jul-01, to lugnet.admin.database, lugnet.trains)
 
  Re: new train cars, MOT or 9V cars
 
Yeah, I noticed that when they arrived... I'm leaning towards the My Own Train, myself, since that's what it actually says on the box. (...) (23 years ago, 24-Jul-01, to lugnet.admin.database)
 
  new train cars, MOT or 9V cars
 
Hi, Not to be nitpicking but I was wondering if the new train cars (caboose etc.) should be located under LEGO > SYSTEM > Trains > 9v > My Own Train instead of LEGO > SYSTEM > Trains > 9v > Train Cars (where they are now) The box-art clearly (...)
