into the Peeron Database or have the sets be MISP?

that's actually for Jennifer to decide, but I think our guideline is
that we'd prefer MISB, but will accept sets you think are complete -
perhaps with a comment about the completeness.  We do like to note the
extra pieces you get when you finish building a set, which is why
generating inventories from instructions doesn't work well...

I wouldn't mind, if I wasn't told :)  but dan's right, MISB is
preferred, but I happen to know that some of our inventories were done
from instructions... that's why we love to get doubles, or later
ourselves verify them, more information is DEFINITELY better than less.

O.k., I'll start with the MISB ones, and add a comment to
those that were from EBay auctions.


Regards,
Hakan
