Hi everyone, I just wanted to let everyone know that I'm going to be mostly offline this week.

(...) My thought was that it would be great to have a big poster (or a few posters) that one could hang up around their work area in order to provide a once glance reminder of all the parts out there.

(...) This relates to what I think is something important to consider for the future development of the LDraw library: rating parts.
