I have no idea how Anton or Paul feel.

I don't care, really. I'm still wondering why we needed those newfangled

"Leveraging the LDraw knowledge-base" :p

I've always been amused at how everyone who
creates a part library uses a totally wron^H^H^H^Hdifferent
coordinate system and names the pieces totally differently.

Isn't that something?  I think it would make much more sense if everyone
built their library using some obscure, *nix-based (that's a bit redundant)
raytracing program.
