Well, I was going to model most/all of my sets for the Repository...and I
have some ideas for the directory structure...

I would say regarding organizing them for indexing, by theme then group
(sub-theme) then set name would be the most efficient method (especially for
people looking for a specific set). And if it makes sense to do so, we
could have a sub-domain for all the official sets: models.ldraw.org. So you
go to the OMR at http://www.ldraw.org/repository/official/ and you can
choose your theme, which would link to something like
http://models.ldraw.org/castle/. Then you could choose the sub-theme,
http://models.ldraw.org/castle/forestmen/, where there would be thumbnails
(either LDrawn or POV-Rayed) of all the Forestmen sets.
Thoughts? (and I understand the not-so-urgent status of this, so...no need
to rush replies, I think)
