Todd,

For the sets group, it would help if we had a standardized way of naming TLG
sets.  Just using the set number gets us in trouble when multiple sets • have the
same number.  I assume Pause has some sort of coding system to deal with • this.
Would there be a way to make this coding system available to people • wishing to
post .dat's of sets?  Maybe a searchable list of set names/numbers with a
unique code for each.

I suggested naming it sorted by theme in directories, then the file name
having the subtheme, number, and year it was released.  For example, the
M:Tron Particle Ionizer would read:

mt-6923-90.dat since it was released in 1990 and is a part of the M:Tron
theme.

Keep Building!!
