Meanwhile, Steve could you switch the parts tracker to
use MLCAD instead of ldglite to generate the image

I do not think it is necessary, since the version of LDGLite
we are using was developed before the MLCAD documentation
was published.

Perhaps, but you and I are not lawyers, and from my viewpoint
intellectual property law is a complete mess right now.

I know. But if we have to disable LDGLite on Munin, that
basically means that we have to deactivate the whole parts
tracker. And if it should have any real meaning, we should
also stop distributing the LDraw parts library, since it
probably uses some features described in the MLCAD
documentation.

Who knows what a lawyer might think.

Anything you feel like paying him to think.
