What about a little less democracy? Like in the days when James was the obvious Leader. Let's say one trusted authority,
Steve, Lars, anyone-else? looks at the part one at the time. Parts with obvious flaws set aside. Then run L3P -check and
exclude parts with critical errors, like "1-3-2-4-quads". Then simply officialize those that passed the tests. Or sent
to a Header Guru that formats the headers according to the guidelines before officializing. Of course, mistakes will be
done, but they can be corrected the next update. I think the obvious drawbacks with this procedure is outweighed by the
drawback of having so many unofficial parts pending.

This could be a temporary solution to get back in pace with the updates, or from now on if it turns out more effective.

Steve,

When are we going to have another parts update?
We do have quite a lot of DAT files in the queue.
(I've got over 60 files in my "to be voted on" queue
on my PC's hard drive.)

What needs to be done to make this happen?

What can I do to help expedite this process?

I understand that you're operating in a strictly
volunteer capacity in this regard, and I hope
that my questions do not offend.  :-(  That is not
my purpose.  I want to help.  Please advise.

Thanks,
Franklin

(...) Almost all aspects of a part can be brushed upon later, should a faulty part be officialized. Bow-tie quads, syntax errors, header errors and bad names. All can easily be fixed later on. There is one aspect, however, which simply cannot be (...) (24 years ago, 31-Jan-01, to lugnet.cad.dev)
