i notice that the parts tracker lists lots of "in progress" parts and i
have others such as the tie fighter bracket that are not even listed!

I would agree with this myself.  I'm looking for a part to use desperately
in a model that someone has been planning on starting since the end of 1997.

one person in particular (i am not naming names but he made the starwars
laser cannon...)
is guilty of this.
i count about 12 parts currently in progress by this author...
he is not the only guilt one though. come on tore, where is the train
wheel rubber ring??? it is probobly only a 5 minute part... and the
oither train parts... the train wheel spoked. when are you going to
finish it and submit it for voting???

But I don't agree with this part of the message.  Please don't presume
others have infinite skills or time.  Maybe there was some unforseen
difficulty in the part.  You can't automatically assume that certain parts
authors are just being lazy.

But yes, there should be at least a time 'limit' before the part goes
available for other authors or something to ensure parts get created in a
timely manner.
