    Has anyone heard anything more about this project?  The site has
apparently not been updated since the 22nd of September 1999.

    In the absence of any substantive news, I have embarked on my own
consolidation of piece descriptions and image files.  It is based on
Ldraw images and the descriptions used for online parts auction sites.
I am distilling the important aspects into several MS Access
databases. If anyone would like to discuss this further, I will
entertain their contributions either here or via e-mail.

    Meanwhile, let's hope that Sybrand has not been separated from his
Lego too long.

If I can get somebody to get the nomenclature down, I will offer to set up a database that will accept the inventories. I was starting on that same project, but it was indeed too immense for me to do alone. I would really like to see an updated (...) (27 years ago, 26-Jan-00, to lugnet.db.brictionary)
  Re: The Lepanadat Project (update 1)
 
It has been a while since I updated the page for the last time. Because I found a new job and had to move, I lately had not very much time over.
