I sent this message once, though haven't seen it come though to the list...
checking if I see it this time :)
I understand how you are feeling, I've wanted for that door for a while
also..
though the problem is.. we've got 90% space freaks <take no offense please>
creating parts, they are going to create parts that they need before they
worry about other themes.. which I can understand.. someone said a while
back
about the instructions on my page that they forgot that ldraw could do more
than space sets, it's true.. we are the forgotten theme.. Maybe after all
the
Star Wars parts are done, they'll get back to a few other themes again :)
Tamy who's not gonna hold her breath though :)
