WOOHOO!!!! Not THAT would be a useful item here at LUGNET. Far better than
Brickshelf's instructions database that is updated through 1997. Knowing
what parts are in sets helps me decide what to buy and I know I'm not the
only one who uses peeron in this fashion.


Do you remember what it was like before the scan archive?  If it's really
not all that useful anymore I could take it down and save a few Mbit/s :)

OMG, don't even say that!
I'm using it so much it's hard to imagine what it'll be like without it!

Seriously, the instructions and set inventories have very little functional
overlap.  Those together combined with the metadata in the Lugnet DB, make
an amazingly useful and complete set of information we could only dream
a few years ago.  Linking the Peeron inventories from the Lugnet set
pages is long, long overdue.

Yep.

Thanks for proving my point for me, David. People use the database all the time,
some more than others, but it still gets used. It's just less useful to me now
that I've cataloged roughly 98% of my collection.
