What is the place for recent parts such as the Fabuland Car Base or the Horse?
Everybody will agree that having ALL parts in ONE place is better.
One solution could be to extend the submission page with a new "Deposit"
button. When this button is used by the submitter the part is mentioned as
"Not eligible" in the Parts List and does not appear in the Certification
List. When the part is finally resubmitted using normal "Submit" button it
turns to a normal "No votes" part.
Doing so, no reviewer or administrator inconvenience would be generated by
the new repository functionality.
