(...) If this means that will have a forum attached to www.ldraw.org MOVE, if it means that we move to www.xxxx.com/LdrawForum we'd better stay. The homepage at Lugnet.com features an article dated "5 June 2009" (by the way CAD still features the (...) (14 years ago, 28-Oct-10, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)

Though I don't yet agree, I have noticed a serious drop in new involvement. I also must admit my own lack of involvement. LUGNET was once the only place to discuss each LEGO topic, but has not done its part to keep up with modern technology and (...) (14 years ago, 27-Oct-10, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)

(...) I can understand the problems with staying with Lugnet, but if we switch, then please pick some software which still allows both NNTP, SMTP and HTTP access. Play well, Jacob (14 years ago, 27-Oct-10, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)

Hi all, Well, as much as it pains me to say it, unless Lugnet changes the way it runs the forums (i.e. signup easy and intuitive, no authorization emails), I think we may need to change venues to avoid the potential alienation of new (...) (14 years ago, 27-Oct-10, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)

(...) Hmmm, it seems to me that any algorithm that can find the missing Type 5 lines (in order to create the dummy entries) should be able to find *all* of the Type 5 lines. Some missing lines is just a special case of all missing. So just include (...) (14 years ago, 23-Sep-10, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)

Secondly, the current algorithm is actually useful to part authors, since it can visually highlight missing conditional lines. (...) (14 years ago, 23-Sep-10, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)

The problem is that two co-planar triangles sitting next to each other (...) (14 years ago, 21-Sep-10, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
