There are other places (many personal web pages), but they are scaterred and
mostly redundant with the ldraw unofficial list.

Part availability is more a question of part authoring, it is not necessarily
connected to part usage and part requests.

Parts can't have the same number, correction (of part number) is guaranteed only
at officialization. Parts listed in the "unofficial part list" can contain any
amount of errors. Renaming the file to 32296b.dat does the job until a better
solution is available. Then, when part is made official, you have to remove this
32296b.dat file.

Hope it helps,
