And I want to say "Thank You!" to Paul for doing this -- Lars Hassing has
performed a similar service in the past, emailing the L3P messages to part
authors.
We[1] are in the process of incorporating L3P into the part submission
function. I expect that the submit program will have to sort through the
L3P messages, as only some of the messages would warrant turning down a
submission.

Are your studs oriented the same way as the studs generated by L3P->POV-Ray?
As it is now, the warnings about stud orientation might be
counter-productive, since most authors (a) wouldn't know what you mean and
(b) wouldn't have the information needed to correct the situation.
There's also the fact that TLC occasionally turns the stud-logo the wrong
direction, but that's an entirely different discussion...
