If a primitive or subfile that has *already* been released (i.e., the file is an
**OFFICIAL** file), you should NOT -- I REPEAT, **NOT** -- use the existence of
any re-submission of said file (e.g., file has been certified for BFC) when
determining the "has uncertified subfiles" criteria for child files.

For example, file 30375csd.dat, "Minifig Mechanical SW Droideka (Shortcut)"
("http://www.ldraw.org/cgi-bin/ptdetail.cgi?f=parts/30375csd.dat") uses only
**officially released LCAD files**.  And yet, since five (5) of these
**officially released LCAD files** have been re-submitted (for either BFC or
minor tweaking or what-not), this assembly file shows as "subfiles aren't
certified"...

I'd almost give money -- (well, if I *had* any to give, that is) -- to have this
functionality added to the Parts Tracker...

Thanks,
Franklin

I disagree with this idea.  Fixed parts can have subtle changes to them that may
affect the parent part.  In other words, part fixes are essentially new parts
meant to replace the old parts.
