Hi folks,

as you might know LDraw's history:

http://www.ldraw.org/Article11.html

hasn't been updated for a long time. With permission from BrickJournal publisher
Joe Meno I'm going to mirror an article published in BrickJournal, Spring 2006,
Volume #1, Issue 4, which covers also the missing years 'til 2004. This leaves
us with 2005, 2006 and 2007. I browsed the various newsgroups compiling a chart
of the highlights, but the list is far from being complete. Feel free to add the
missing pieces. I'm gonna put it into a fine reading once the highlights are
complete.

Willy,

Good summary of the past couple years. Two things I'd love to see are:

1) A side-by-side timeline of development and milestones for various LDraw
tools. Somewhat like a Gantt chart.

2) A feature matrix of the various tools and the major functions they perform.

I can put the graphics together if there's a comprehensive tool list and people
can fill in release dates and associated summaries.

-Tim

Hi Tim,

any help is much appriciated and I'd love to see such a graphic along with the
history. Best would be if our code gods could reply to this post and list the
release dates of their tools.

ps. I really should word the missing years but have to finish the L(EGO)Draw
part I'm fixing right now first: http://www.peeron.com/inv/parts/40242 a tricky
little thing.
