Tim, I'm the person who was supposed to be helping with the
reviewing and
editting so that 'we' also refers to me. Who else was willing to
help? I'll still
review and edit, but could someone else do the MPDing and
un-inlining?

Fine, replace that line with 'o. m. r.'

so change the 2nd line to read
0 X-Wing left wing submodel
Who else besides Jeff and myself were working on this? I was
under the
impression that we were the ones heading it up. I just want to
know because
it seems that the standards we had agreed upon are be
disregarded and not
accepted. Just to try and make my self clearer what I am trying
to say is that
if we were 'put in charge' of the model repository, then we
should be the ones
making the decisions on headers and model title, etc. We had
done that, but
it seems to me that what we had come up with is being regarded
as inadaquate,
even though it was quite thorough.
