So, nothing could be more clear than this example. As I said before,
Continuing to follow TLG naming scheme causes problems. Always.
Is it a nice thing to put some already done and meet the quality
requirements parts on hold, just because they are "exactly" problem from TLG
naming point of view? Could there be any other example which is more clear
showing that this naming scheme influences CAD enjoyment in a very very bad
way?
Look at the situation again. We have some parts already done and we didn't
include them to the last update. Why? Are they not satisfactory? Are they
low quality? No. We just couldn't have decided what should be their part
number. How...anyway.

| I am truly sorry that we are going through this problem. But LDraw is a dual purpose program. The original purpose, and one that is still valid, useful, and needed, is that of a parts reference. A parts reference that depends on using TLG part (...) (26 years ago, 26-Mar-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
