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 fixed later on.
This is the insertion point and rotation of the part. Having a parts
library without a consistent insertion point/rotation regime is kinda

presented on the LUGNET DAT groups. But I would still like to see
some more focus on this issue. We have a lot of bad examples in the
parts library, and even a few from recent parts update.
However the parts update is done in the future, I would be happy to
see that parts are still posted to the cad.dat.parts group for
comments before going official.

Parts with obvious flaws set aside. Then run L3P -check and exclude (...) (24 years ago, 31-Jan-01, to lugnet.cad.dev)
