Any thoughts?  (Has this already been suggested and rejected?)

I thought we took this already to a conclusion a few months ago. AFAIR, • I

all, and I am weird. I'll let the all-mighty Todd craft the ever elegant
answer to your question. Not to be confused with the all-powerful Larry • P.

I don't remember flatly rejecting it, but I remember a lot of opinions on • both
sides of the issue -- people who think it would be a good idea and people • who
think it would be a bad idea.

I remember that. There was a lot of discussion about it.

More likely (and I lean toward thinking perhaps
it's inevitable someday) is creating subgroups of the .market groups
for specific themes rather than creating .market subgroups of each theme. • The
sub-group nomenclature of all the theme/system groups (lugnet.castle,
lugnet.town, lugnet.space, etc.) is reserved for "sub-themes" (or as LEGO • calls
them, the "play themes" within the systems), for example Forestmen within
Castle, Arctic within Town, Blacktron within Space, etc.  There could • always
be cross-ref links from the /castle/, /town/, and /space/ areas on the • website
to the corresponding market areas.

All right. My memories of this are rather foggy, I guess. This sounds like a
good avenue to balance market within the themes.
