  Re: License Intent
 
(...) That depends on the license on the LDraw Parts Library and the LDraw file for the model/scene. (...) Exactly. (...) But since the _rendering_ of the DAT file _is_ a derivative work of the LDraw Parts Library, distributing the rendering may (...) (20 years ago, 10-Jun-04, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
 
  Re: License Intent
 
(...) If anybody has copyright to a _part_, it must by default be LEGO. But the copyright to a rendering of a part in one or a number of LDraw files is held jointly by all the involved parties (ignoring the difficult question of exactly how small (...)

  Re: META-command System For Creating Minifigs?
 
(...) There doesn't seem to be a standard, but I'd like one too. I'm hoping to make one by extending the LDAO MINIFIG META-commands, grabbing the part category lists from one of the extensible minifig part INI files available, and running it through (...) (20 years ago, 10-Jun-04, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: License Intent
 
(...) I agree. I just don't think we've come up with a better solution yet. Hopefully someone clever will spot the one we've missed so far! The problem with one library is that, to be fair, it sort of feels like we can't just wing it and say all the (...) (20 years ago, 10-Jun-04, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
 
  Re: License Intent
 
What follows are my opinions, not vetted with the rest of the committee... (...) Yes. Personally I strongly agree that there ought to be baseline never to be changed conditions.. and that they ought to be named off. (note: that conflicts with using (...)

  Re: License Intent
 
(...) I'm not philosophically opposed to an old/new library, but it would be awkward to administer. Especially if we suddenly started restricting ourselves from modifying the uncertified files. We'd start spending a lot of time explaining to people (...) (20 years ago, 10-Jun-04, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)

  Re: License Intent
 
(...) How are parts individually copyrighted? Actually, what exactly is a 'part'? Is a shock absorber a single part, or an assembly of several parts? How about a minifig torso (as they exist in lego sets)? If you want to talk about have to copyright (...) (20 years ago, 10-Jun-04, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
 
  Re: Straight moving with only one rotation sensor
 
Hello y'all- Does anyone out there know where I can get discontinued lego sets (mainly the autochassis set 8860&65) at reasonable rates here in Ontario? Thanks. (20 years ago, 10-Jun-04, to lugnet.cad.dat.ideas)
 
  Straight moving with only one rotation sensor  [DAT]
 
Hi I saw in the LEGO Mindstorms Web Page that many people made their robots with 2 motors go straight using one rotation sensor on each wheel and stopping the correct motor until both sensors were equal. I got Ultimate Accessory Set as a present (...) (20 years ago, 10-Jun-04, to lugnet.cad.dat.ideas)
 
  Re: Problem with click hinge part(s)?

  Re: Problem with click hinge part(s)?
 
(...) Actually its the other way about. 30387 is wrong. More accurately, the subpart s/30387s01.dat does not match the guidance notes in p/clh1 and p/clh4. 0 // Placement on side of bricks; rotate accordingly, 0 // place on side 10 Ldu below top (...)

  META-command System For Creating Minifigs?
 
(...) If there is a universally working* META-command system for creating minifigs, be it LDAO's, LDDPMINIFIGGEN or any other, I'd like to push for it to be more or less an official standard. As I haven't been that engaged in this side of LCad, I am (...) (20 years ago, 9-Jun-04, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: ldraw newbie
 
(...) What do you think about the MLCAD.INI file format? It seems to contain the same sort of information as the minifig.ini file, but it's already documented, and so far it's been updated fairly promptly. It'd be really nice to standardize on one (...) (20 years ago, 9-Jun-04, to lugnet.cad)

  Re: License Intent
 
(...) I can appreciate the idea, but I doubt that you will be able to enforce that through a license for the parts library. Also, it is not always possible to implement a two-way converter between a pair of formats. Jacob (20 years ago, 9-Jun-04, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
 
  Re: License Intent
