I have a quick question about the 2009 Part Updates - As far as I can tell from
the description at LDraw.org and here the updates are cumulative (I need to
install 2009-1 and then 2009-2) However the names of both files are identical
and as a result if I try to download both one of two things happen:
1)the second download overwrites the first
2) my browser takes the download from the cache and consequently doesn't really
download the other file but re-downloads the one I already had.
If the files are cumulative, maybe they could be renamed to include the release
in the file name in the same way as has been done for 2008-01.
