| | | In general, I agree with Orion that having the parts tracker is much better than not having it, and that the main problem is that there are too few active reviewers. Just as a reminder to those reviewers out there, look at the parts queue, which (...) (21 years ago, 29-Sep-03, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)

I was really trying to advocate changing just the sort order of the parts tracker list (so that parts at the bottom of the page don't get ignored), not (...)

The possible 'statuses' for files are: - Certified! - Needs Admin review - Needs more votes - Subfiles aren't certified - Hold My thinking when I constructed the list and the sorting was: - Keep the (...)
