<Good questions. Which I snipped.>
In my opinion:
A name is needed to identify the concept of "formated to be compatible
with LDraw and LEdit, as extended". This name needs to be separate from
the concept of "the LDraw suite of tools that JJ developed". Only one
can be LDraw, the other needs to be a different name. Which one? That's
what this debate is about.
both .mpd and .dat are poorly named extensions. .dat more so, but .mpd
is used by Microsoft Project. If future tools could recognise other
extensions that would be swell.

| Because of some of the more recent advancements in software which utilizes the .dat file, I have been thinking about what LDraw *is*. I think we should firmly establish what LDraw is if there are going to [and there will] be more advancements in (...) (25 years ago, 8-Dec-99, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
