Yes, didn't I? Almost twice as long as your post... ;)

Isn't MLCad freeware? I didn't know that. But then again, I'm not an MLCad user.
I don't know about a dedicated LDraw chat. Would it really be populated? There's
nothing that stops us from creating an LDraw chat room in, say BrickLink. No
need for asking permission or setting up anything. And many of us already has a
BrickLink account, I guess. But I don't think it will be popular either.
Oh, IRC... it was ages since I used it. Didn't even know it still existed in any
form. Is it "in" again?
