  Re: Legacy Files on the Parts Tracker
 
(...) I can think if a few things that might help throughput (I'm sure that most of these have been discussed before): 1) Create a new review attribute "compared to physical part" (which could apply to an admin or regular review), which certifies (...)

  Re: Legacy Files on the Parts Tracker
 
(...) I think something like this (or just releasing unused primitives) would be useful. There is a clear advantage to "locking in" primitives: they are designed to be used by multiple authors; if they are not properly examined and said to be good, (...)

  Re: Legacy Files on the Parts Tracker
 
(...) I'm opposed to the [x] number of votes equals an admin vote for a couple of reasons: - I envision a group of reviewers getting together the push a few low quality or controversial parts through at the last minute. It really wouldn't be that (...) (21 years ago, 30-Sep-03, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
 
  Re: Legacy Files on the Parts Tracker
 
Thanks for the feedback. First of all, to my mind, the number of files processed and released has no bearing on the issue I raised, that there are *several* files that have been sitting on the Parts Tracker for *well* over a year (almost *two* (...)

  Re: Legacy Files on the Parts Tracker
 
(...) But how can you certify a part that uses subparts, if the subparts might change? Maybe the orientation of the file will change, and then the parent part would have to be modified? Or am I missing something? (21 years ago, 29-Sep-03, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
 
  Re: Legacy Files on the Parts Tracker
 
In general, I agree with Orion that having the parts tracker is much better than not having it, and that the main problem is that there are too few active reviewers. Just as a reminder to those reviewers out there, look at the parts queue, which (...) (21 years ago, 29-Sep-03, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
 
  Re: Legacy Files on the Parts Tracker
 
(...) snip (...) I couldn't agrre with this more. Having the parts tracker allows users access to a greater number of parts than ever before. Using these parts becomes stricly the user's decision and therefore risk. I'm sure there are those people (...) (21 years ago, 27-Sep-03, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
 
  Re: Legacy Files on the Parts Tracker
 
(...) I have a couple of thought on this: 1.) The numbers don't support your claims. In 2002, the first full year of the PT, we released over 800 files, over 500 of which were new parts, this is more than the years 1998, 1999, and 2000 combined. Not (...)

  Legacy Files on the Parts Tracker
 
There are some files on the Parts Tracker that have been sitting there for quite some time (well over a year). Here's just a small group...

  Re: Announcing LDraw.org Relaunch

  Re: Several questions about new LDraw.org pages

But if you are lucky (and with Dan at the sys-admin helm you usually are) old links will continue to work - at least for a (...) (21 years ago, 16-Sep-03, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
 
  Re: Several questions about new LDraw.org pages
 
(...) Thanks. (...) We're working on having the page auto update whenever a parts update is released. If you need the most recent update, you can download the complete package. (...)

  Re: Question about legacy pages on ldraw.org
 
(...) The old content will not go away until all of it is present in some form on the new site. Also, your link shouldn't have to be changed either since we'll adjust our redirects accordingly -Orion (21 years ago, 16-Sep-03, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
 
  Re: Question about legacy pages on ldraw.org
 
(...) Yeah, I still have a link to the same page, for the same reasons. So obviously I have similar concerns. I think I squirreled away a copy of that page via wget just in case. While we're on the subject, is there anyone out there with enough (...) (21 years ago, 16-Sep-03, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw, FTX)
 
  Question about legacy pages on ldraw.org
 
I have a link in my LDView download page to the old (URL) Get Started: Linux Users> page at ldraw.org. At the moment, it still works, but as far as I can tell, the new site has no equivalent page, although you can still get to this page if you go to (...)

  Several questions about new LDraw.org pages
 
Hallo First, I should say "nicely done".
