If only we knew what to do with that lousy crenellated wall topper, we could get
rid of the Castle group altogether...

FYI: the Boat Stud is now Dish 2 x 2 -- both Peeron and LDList will still match
on Boat Stud. And it was officially renamed only 1 time, in 2004-02. It just
took us a few unofficial gyrations to figure out the better name. :)

You didn't mention pattern descriptions, which get tweaked at the drop of a hat.
It seems like half the parts that are submitted to the PT for updates have a
title/name change. Many of which get changed back before the part is released.

And if we change a part number, we almost always leave a "Moved to" stub file.
