(...) Yes. (...) Yes to that too. I've fixed both of these problems. Hopefully I didn't introduce new once (the content system on ldraw.org can be finicky). --Travis (17 years ago, 22-Aug-07, to lugnet.cad)

At this url: (URL) you scroll down to the first Examples header (in bold) there's this line: 0 !CATEGORY Animal 0 !KEYWORDS Sting, Poison, Adventurers, Egypt Is there supposed to be a line break between "Animal" and "0"? Also, a little later in the (...) (17 years ago, 22-Aug-07, to lugnet.cad)

| | New rule for SOTM/MOTM
|

Dear all, We have decided to introduce an additional rule to the MOTM and SOTM contests on LDraw.org in order to make them a little more interesting. We will now only run these contests if there are a minimum of five entries. The current situation (...) (17 years ago, 22-Aug-07, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw, lugnet.announce) !

(...) I think the original suggestion that we mention that it is in row-major format is valid. I agree that the fact that OpenGL (almost certainly one of the top two most used 3D APIs on the planet) uses column major format is a good reason to (...) (17 years ago, 21-Aug-07, to lugnet.cad)

(...) The "so-what" would be that I, as someone who will eventually read in these files to create OpenGL renderings of them, would expect the matrices to be in column-major order, unless explicitly stated otherwise. Rob (17 years ago, 21-Aug-07, to lugnet.cad)

(...) Umm, so what? LDraw is not, and should not, be dependent on OpenGL. Having worked with transformation matrix in both formats, I find the row-major format much easier to hand-edit than column-major organization. At least for LDraw-type usage (...) (17 years ago, 21-Aug-07, to lugnet.cad)

(...) Is this really what the LDRAW spec is stating? Because that would be contrary to the OpenGL spec, in which the standard ordering of matrices is column-major. So if you have a row like a b c d e f g h That would be interpreted in OpenGL as a e (...) (17 years ago, 21-Aug-07, to lugnet.cad)
