End of story.

Some additional data points, for the record:


1) The LDraw FAQ document and Bram's LDraw & LEdit tutorial,

    http://hugin.risoe.dk/JJ_Memorial/FAQ/

Ok, I do get it.  But I did make a mistake in my original post that caused
Sproat to jump on it... I meant to say that I would keep the domain name
'ldraw.org' in lower case not change it all to 'ldraw' or refuse to
capitalize certain letters of the word LDraw.  I understand the way it has
been capitalized in all the official and unofficial documents.

Keep Building!!
