(...) How about a 24-hour-diff, and if the diff file is empty, just throw it away? That way, you would keep only the diffs in which something actually changed. What I'm doing at the moment is to download your master list and commit it to my CVS (...) (24 years ago, 28-Mar-01, to lugnet.db.inv)

|

Hi, I got a few sets from EBay that were marked as "complete", and, as far as I can see, they had all the right pieces to build at least the main model. Dou you accept inventories of those sets into the Peeron Database or have the sets be MISP? (...) (24 years ago, 28-Mar-01, to lugnet.db.inv)
