Thanks Chris!

But that reminds me of something I noticed recently. Quite some time ago, I
submitted the parts x170, x171, x172 and x173, which together make up x170c01
http://www.ldraw.org/cgi-bin/ptdetail.cgi?f=parts/x170c01.dat

At the time it was decided they should all be in Parts, as they are all
separately molded parts, but glued together in the complete assembly. But it
seems 2 of the sub-parts have been certified, thus changing their numbers to 170
and 171 respectively, while the other 3 remain un-certified. This of course
breaks x170c01, as it expects all the sub parts to have the x prefix. I dunno
the best way around this problem, but my suggestion would be to not allow
certification of parts if there is a complete assembly on the tracker that
includes them.

Any comments from the parts tracker folk?
