Hi Tim!

One other thing...

You mentioned in another group about James' background and history.
One thing I would like to see is a picture of him.  Can you contact his

needs to be more specialized.  When I see .dxf I think of Autocad, .pdf of
Adobe, .3ds of 3D Studio Max, or .pov of POVRay.  It would be nice to see an
LDraw file (part or model) and recognize immediately that it is LDraw.  Good
idea.

Yeah, I'd really like to see LDraw II come (...) (25 years ago, 9-Dec-99, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
