There are a few sections on the new LDraw.org website which are not fully operational yet. Please make a note. Model of the Month/Scene of the Month Voting http://www.ldraw.org/community/contests/voting/ The script which runs this section has not been made fully operational on the new site. Expect this within the next 24-48 hours. Parts Tracker http://www.ldraw.org/library/tracker/ The script which runs this section has not been made fully operational on the new site. Expect this within the next several days. Parts Updates http://www.ldraw.org/library/updates/ This is an issue of copying files over which did not get done at the last minute. Expect this as soon as possible, at the very least we will make complete.exe available immediately for new users. This will be totally fixed in the next 24-48 hours. Download Files http://www.ldraw.org/download/ Some files are not yet on the server. They are being uploaded as I type. ---- HOW TO REPORT BUGS YOU FIND PLEASE report ALL bugs on the site HERE IN THE LUGNET.CAD.DEV.ORG.LDRAW NEWSGROUP, not by private email!! This will ensure that we don't get duplicate bug reports and we will have one place to go for a list of all we need to fix. We appreciate your cooperation in this matter, and encourage you to find errors on the site so they can get fixed. Thanks!! -Tim
