Regarding a separate LCAD domain, why can't you simply make a sub-domain in ldraw.org like what was done with mlcad.ldraw.org? ((URL) that isn't possible, I heard from someone who said that some place offers domain names for about $15/year. I'll (...) (24 years ago, 18-Dec-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) That seems backwards to me. If "LCAD" is the all-encompassing term we want to use, then LDraw would be a subset of LCAD, and the 'proper' subdomain name would be ldraw.lcad.org (to go along with mlcad.lcad.org, etc). But that's working from an (...) (24 years ago, 18-Dec-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) Shouldn't the latter be mlcad.ldraw.lcad.org? I tend to view any program which uses the LDraw parts library in any way as a descendant of the LDraw heritage, and hence as a subset of "LDraw in the wider sense". If a LEGO CAD program "Xyzzy" (...) (24 years ago, 19-Dec-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
