  Re: Do we have a plan B?
 
(...) Speaking for myself and not the SteerCo, I want to stick with LUGNET until the bitter end. I was dismayed when some of the other communities spun off discussion groups as I think this segregated the community further (and I hate phpBB which (...)

  Re: Do we have a plan B?
 
(...) I'd be happy just using NNTP, as long as we don't have to go with an email confirmation like we do here. That's what made me switch to almost exclusively using the web interface. ROSCO (19 years ago, 20-Jul-05, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)

  Re: Do we have a plan B?
 
(...) Gah. I really don't want to think about it, but if the Steering committee wants it, it should be reasonably easy to set up an NNTP/Mail server... And I'm sure we can find some package to put a web interface on it. (19 years ago, 19-Jul-05, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
 
  Do we have a plan B?
 
guys, I was waiting to see a bounce of the on-going discussion at /admin/general about the possible shut down by october, especially after kevin has rosen the key point: (URL) really hate to ask the question and I wish from heart that it remains the (...)

  LDraw Browser (was: LSC - request for defining a WORKING connection database standard)
 
(...) SNIP-SNAP (...) hi damien, I wrote that request more than a year ago! meanwhile I've made up my mind. I agree that this would be very time consuming and I got convinced that we will probably never see such a feature in any of the editor (...)

  Re: LSC - request for defining a WORKING connection database standard
 
(...) nod, yes. (...) Add to this the fact that to get a working connection-enabled tool, you need start with (or at least develop along the way) a working GUI-based editing tool. That really narrows the field of potential (...) (19 years ago, 18-Jul-05, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.dev.lcd, lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
 
  Re: LSC - request for defining a WORKING connection database standard
 
(...) Hi Willy, I think "working" needs a tool. 1. there is a tool 2. there is a developping database There is no chicken-egg problem: the tool always precedes the database. Would you model parts without MLCad, LeoCad or LDraw? I doubt anybody (...) (19 years ago, 18-Jul-05, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.dev.lcd, lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
 
  Re: LSC - request for defining a WORKING connection database standard
 
(...) Note that Rosco already did take a crack at a few, including generating some images for them, and in doing so, found a problem in one I created, and caused me to decide to add fields to the connectionTypeBox, which is goodness. Thanks! (...) I (...) (19 years ago, 18-Jul-05, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.dev.lcd, lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
 
  Re: LSC - request for defining a WORKING connection database standard
 
(...) While a connection database could be helpful, I just cant help thinking that a relationship/constrain system like solidworks and Pro/Engineer use could acheive a lot more. It could certainly be a start, then simplified - so the CAD (...) (19 years ago, 18-Jul-05, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.dev.lcd, lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
 
  Re: LSC - request for defining a WORKING connection database standard
 
I'm not sure where this standard definition is at these days, or whether it could be used to automate what I'm doing by a clever MetaWiki robot coder, but I (and others) started capturing some connection information in BrickWiki ( (URL) ) You can (...)

  Re: LSC: Call for Nominations
 
(...) Given that self-nominations are allowed, and seconds to the nominations aren't required, do you think perhaps it might be good next year to simply require all nominations be self-nominations? We then wouldn't have to worry about people (...) (19 years ago, 15-Jul-05, to lugnet.cad, FTX)
