Hallo

First, I should say "nicely done". Hopefully it will make life of the LDraw
staff easier.

second - I have some questions:

- In Parts library/updates page (using left-side menu on the main page) there
are updates till 2002, but on the "old" site (now on adress
http://www.ldraw.org/OLD/library/updates/) there are newer updates. Since it's
located in directory /OLD/ I suppose it'll be discontinued (sooner or later).
Will you add upgrades to the "new" page in the future or did I miss something?

- second one: I am slowly building page with some informations about LDraw a
making L-cad models (in my native language) so people in my country can use all
the LDraw related tools. One part of my effort is making instructions how to
install LDraw package etc. How is LDraw policy about "deep links" referring
directly to ldraw027.exe, complete.exe etc? I know it isn't really polite, but
on the other hand - it makes sense to me, when I try to prevent people from
getting lost in english pages (many people here don't know english). Would it be
OK when I provide both direct links AND reference to page on ldraw.org?

thanks in advance
