  Re: LCD - LEGO Connection Database - Proposal
 
(...) Is there a contemporaneous format to which LCD could apply? (honest question) (...) LEGO is sensitive about the use of their name. [No different than GoB(tm)] (...) I think it now stands for LDraw, formerly it was something like LEGO Draw. (...) (23 years ago, 29-Jan-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: LCD - LEGO Connection Database - Proposal
 
(...) Not sure. LEGO(r)'s own internal format? There IS one but few know details. The LEGO Creator(tm) format?

(...) I would assume BlockCAD. Anton?
