I see what you're saying, but I think you're misunderstanding excluding
'parts' for 'people.' This isn't intended to exclude individuals from the
group at Lugnet or from using ldraw.org. Its to keep the Lego brand aspect
of LDraw and Lugnet pure from the imitation brands. People can make those
parts, host them elsewhere, and still remain a part of the Lugnet community.
As I said in another recent post, a link to the off-site clone part pages
will be acceptable.
