  Parts Tracker - Using L3P-check to scan submitted files
 
Hey y'all- I'm just sort of starting to get to adding L3P-check'ing to the Parts Tracker submit function. I took a look at the documented messages, and tried to sort them out according to whether or not any particular error was cause to reject a (...)

(...) And I want to say "Thank You!" to Paul for doing this -- Lars Hassing has performed a similar service in the past, emailing the L3P messages to part authors. We[1] are in the process of incorporating L3P into the part submission function. I (...) (23 years ago, 17-Oct-01, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)

(...) I've taken some time away from the process of posting the backlog of parts to the tracker. I will get back to finish the job, but other tasks have higher priorities.

(...) Ok, I'm the guilty party who posted such notes on the tracker. :) I still pass a part with these errors. Some of my earler parts have these too.

  Re: "All zeros" warning (Was: Parts Tracker Activity Page)
 
(...) Hmm. I interpret this like the lawyer's question, "Is that when you stopped beating your wife?" It's not really yes or no. The totally accurate answer is: there are no 2D objects in LDraw. The polygons we model are just the 2D surfaces of 3D (...) (23 years ago, 17-Oct-01, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)

  Parts Tracker Activity Page
 
(XPOST lugnet.cad, FUT lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw) One of the usability challenges I've been having with the new Parts Tracker is knowing what's been going on.

  Number of parts?
 
Do we have an official tally of the number of official parts in the LCad library? I would include the multitude of official torsos and decorated elements, but I'm not as curious about the number of official primitives or subparts. Any info will help (...)
