Sure, but if you're going to submit the hi-res version of 6002.dat then
why don't you just submit the new primitives along with it in an MPD
file?  I think that's reasonable.  By the way, do you happen to know if
the hi-res sphere primitive has been submitted?

Actualy I think it would be better to submit the primitives seperately so they
can be used on other models as well, plus it makes the file smaller which was
why I split the piece up in the first place. I'm somewhat of a byte miser
trying to minimize the size of pieces, using mirror images and replacing some
edged quadrilaterals with rectangles. If you want though I would be happy to
submit the primitives for you.

I was under the impression that you can submit them all as one MPD file
and then someone in charge takes it apart and puts the individual files
in the right directories (as long as the MPD file contains the paths).
After all, LEDIT doesn't handle MPD files.

So yes, I'd appreciate it if you'd submit the primitives with the rest.
I think you should also submit the sphere primitive just in case it
hasn't been submitted yet.  Perhaps you could check with Travis Cobbs
about that one?
