(...) Fuzzy category cross-referencing would definitely help. (...) Oh. I meant by all of that counter-example-ing that going down that path crumbles because of the immediately arising need for an extra layer, i.e. .domains or equivalent. Because of (...)

(...) Well, at the risk of sounding like I'm repeating myself, I really like the thought of a special group lugnet.trains.org for people to help plan and talk about how to set up more clubs like PNLTC and GMLTC. The .org. node is forward-expandable (...) (26 years ago, 14-Apr-99, to lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.admin.general)

(...) Nope, keep LDraw capitalized as-is. That's how James named it, that's how it's copyrighted, that's the trademark, that's how it'll stay. End of story. IMO, "Foundation" conjures up images of a non-profit institution (a plus) which dabbles in (...) (26 years ago, 14-Apr-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)

I feel it is an appropriate time to register the domain name and take donations for it. I figure I will not waste time contacting Larry via email, but go ahead with handling donations myself since he has been absent (or at least hasn't posted) here (...) (26 years ago, 14-Apr-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
