That (both the itlug and Dan's solutions) is definitely a
nice and easy solution.
The problem here is that Tim would like to keep his job at
LEGO and have a go at being on the LDraw.org steering
committee.
Since I don't know what Tim's position at LEGO is, I can't
say if I find that a problem or not. And I think it is
really more in LEGO's interest than in LDraw.org's interest
to formalise that LEGO doesn't control LDraw.org. After
all; what damage could LEGO do by having somebody on the
LDraw.org steering committee?
But if the general view in Europe is that LEGO staff
shouldn't be allowed to be members of the LUG's, then I can
see that we have a problem to solve. Do you think it would
be acceptable if LEGO staff was allowed as non-voting
members?
