(...) Hmm, yeah I'm a bit disappointed in how it doesn't let you group events so they show up in the same place horizontally. So, if we want to use this in its current state, we'd have to drop the version dates which isn't good. I hope the group (...) (17 years ago, 20-Apr-08, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw, FTX)
