  Re: Elections and Membership in ldraw.org
 
Hi Anders - (...) This verification discussion was based on the assertion in the thread that proving a unique identity to prevent vote spoofing was important. So, the suggestions made were proportioal to the concern expressed. That said, seeing that (...) (21 years ago, 29-Apr-03, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)

  Re: Elections and Membership in ldraw.org
 
(...) Same here. (...) I agree here as well. Alternatively, the postcard idea could verify non-LUGNET members. Those opposed to ID as validation have generally accepted the postcard idea in its place. -Tim (21 years ago, 29-Apr-03, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
 
  Re: Moving LDraw.org permanently to Peeron?
 
(...) just for the record, we're ok with this. (...) I think this is currently taken care of - the 3 files that accord for ~70% of the traffic are hosted on a different server that can handle the traffic. (...) I think that would be the case for any (...) (21 years ago, 29-Apr-03, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
 
  Re: Moving LDraw.org permanently to Peeron?
 
(...) I'm positive towards the idea. Dan has been very helpful thus far, and Pair is a reliable ISP. -Tim (21 years ago, 29-Apr-03, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
 
  Moving LDraw.org permanently to Peeron?
 
What does people think about moving LDraw.org permanently to Peeron? I have discussed the problem a bit with Dan and Jennifer and they seem to be positive towards the idea, as long as we can distribute the heavy traffic (downloading the complete (...)

(...) that would work with me, if everyone accepts the risk. (...) I wouldn't want to require LDraw members to be LUGNET members. Dan (21 years ago, 29-Apr-03, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
 
  Re: Elections and Membership in ldraw.org

  Re: LPub 2.2.0.0 Available
 
(...) I'm really looking forward to this :-) I regret that I haven't had the time recently to play with the new LPub. I should download it on my spare machine and play there. I can't wait to see the new features you have in store! (ahem, EPS output, (...) (21 years ago, 29-Apr-03, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.inst)
 
  Who can vote for the LSC? (was: Re: Elections and Membership in ldraw.org)
 
(...) I pretty much agree with you. I'm not 100% sure if the latest draft proposal explicitly states this or not. My original thought was along these lines as well. An observation, if I may...

  Re: Elections and Membership in ldraw.org
 
(...) I think that the privileges would need to change as you move from site to site. Peeron and LUGNET have blanket memberships: every member at these sties pretty much has the same privileges (as far as I know, only admins and moderators have (...)

  Re: JDraw3D, another Viewer/Editor for ldraw files
 
Sorry, it's my fault. I'll try to explain thinks better and change the page. What I can tell you right now is that you don't have the required java vm plugin installed in your browser - probably MS IE. Microsoft ships MSIE with his own (...) (21 years ago, 29-Apr-03, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: JDraw3D, another Viewer/Editor for ldraw files
 
(...) Interesting idea but you may want to provide a little more assistance to people on getting it running, like giving links to the prereqs for major platforms if you know what they are. I pressed the compatability test and got a grey area and no (...) (21 years ago, 29-Apr-03, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Elections and Membership in ldraw.org
 
(...) Yes. But we really want to avoid ballot stuffing, personally identifiable information is needed. So either we have to give up on preventing ballot stuffing, or on not exchanging personally identifiable information. For the brain-storm: * (...)

  JDraw3D, another Viewer/Editor for ldraw files
 
Hello All, It's my first time posting here, but I just didn't know how to show to the public my program, a 3d viewer / editor for LDraw files. Please let me know what you think about it. It is written entirely in java, so it should be ready to run (...) (21 years ago, 28-Apr-03, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) I like this idea a lot. Who cares about the instant gratification aspect. I say that if you want the ability to vote, you have to care enough to wait a couple of weeks. -Orion (21 years ago, 29-Apr-03, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
