I think that it would be unwise to use words such as vertical clip or gable
in part nomenclatures.  The gable end piece was designed to be used to
complete the gable of a roof, yet it might be used for an entirely different
purpose. A 1 x 1 with vertical clip assumes the stud faces up, which again
is not only the case.

My two cents,

John Matthews

Actually subject line says all. How about making a move about it? Many
efforts ongoing around the community requires this. The first examples • that
come to mind are piece auctions, set inventory database and Lego CAD
studies. We have already several half-agreed standards, like Ldraw lib and
Auczilla names, but isn't there a real and (starting to be) urgent need • for
a universal naming convention?

What 's your opinions?

Todd? What about a dedicated news group for voting and so? Just like faq • ng?
