  Re: Ebrace and Extend (was Re: Non-commercial clause)
 
(...) I agree that GPL might not be the right license to use here - I was just using it as an example of how the "extension" problem might be dealt with, as far as the license goes. Of course that we would always want the LDraw format to be the most (...) (20 years ago, 5-Jun-04, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
 
  Ebrace and Extend (was Re: Non-commercial clause)
 
(...) (For those of you who do not know, GPL=Gnu Public License.) GPL is one strategy. I prefer an innovate over litigate strategy. The GPL is complex and in certain critical areas extremely vague. The GPL attempts to mandate innovation by requiring (...) (20 years ago, 5-Jun-04, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
 
  Re: Non-commercial clause (was Re: License Intent )
 
(...) Wouldn't this problem be solved by the GPL approach, where any modifications made have to be re-submitted to the original library? This way, yes, you can make your cool changes, and sell them, but you have to send the patches back to the (...) (20 years ago, 5-Jun-04, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
 
  Non-commercial clause (was Re: License Intent )
 
(...) [snip] (...) It is very hard to define what commerical vs. non-commercial use is as the examples above demonstrate. One of the best ways to ensure that part authors do not feel "ripped off" is to ensure that the library is alwasys freely (...) (20 years ago, 5-Jun-04, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)

can anyone create part 47405? (maersk ship boat base part) i think i figured out a way to enlarge and create a somewhat minifig scale maersk ship. (similar to scale from the launch and load seaport) (20 years ago, 5-Jun-04, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: License Intent
 
I have to agree (and I know as a non-part author myself other than pathetic attempts which never saw the light of day by point will be held in less regard than those of actual offical part authors') that all parts should be open source. Not that (...) (20 years ago, 5-Jun-04, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
 
  Unknown part: Brick 2 x 4 with hole
 
Among a lot of 2nd hand lego from the seventies (ca 1971 - 1977, no older bricks) I found a red 2x4 brick with a small hole in the top. The hole looks perfect, so I don't think someone has drilled it in the brick. I could not find any reference (...) (20 years ago, 5-Jun-04, to lugnet.general, lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: high res bushlocks?
 
(...) I think they are fine the way they are. The basic reason is size. The bushlocks are 20 LDU in diameter. 48-segment primitives are not needed until you get to 80 LDU diameter curves. If you need to put 48-segment primitives with a bushlock, (...) (20 years ago, 5-Jun-04, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts.primitives)
 
  Re: Looking for Roborider parts
 
(...) I believe both of those parts are on the Parts Tracker. Search through the list at (URL) (20 years ago, 5-Jun-04, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
 
  Re: ldraw newbie  [DAT]
 
(...) Do you mean LDraw meta-commands? Or some command system called META? Anyway, you could look at LDAO's set of meta-commands for modelling minifigs. At least as a starting point. It's pretty straight-forward. LDAO's minifig modeller generates (...) (20 years ago, 5-Jun-04, to lugnet.cad)
