That's ok. Maybe for you "what gives" is a part of everyday language, but when
I hear it the phrase is usually associated with complaining, so that's how I
took it.

You're welcome. I wish I could say it was fun all the time, but it isn't. It
started out fun though, and somehow I have to figure out a way to make it fun
again.

Thanks. I'll jot down your name and address, and I have to discuss organizing
tasks a bit more with the others involved with the site. Then I'll email you.
We're kinda in a transitional period, behind the scenes a lot of discussion has
been going on about making the process of downloading DAT libraries and software
easier - including a parts license which allows distribution of the library
_separate_ from LDraw proper (the original DOS program), and a formal
organization structure (I've got a lot of paper on that one, perhaps I can work
on that on a 6hr flight coming up later this week, among other things to do on
the plane - Larry and Leo, lets chat at LEGOLAND about this stuff on Saturday).
Its overwhelming, especially when you get behind. I should have had a LeoCAD
review up about a month ago, but I let it slip aside (Sorry Leo!!). We've
gotten a lot discussed, but we have a ways to go. What I would give for a
weekend with all the contributors in person, a handful of computers on a
network, and high speed internet access. Lots would get done that way.
