OK, good. I agree with most of these, at least sort of. :)

I wouldn't change something because just one person says so. Even
(especially) if that one person is me. There are a few people who I bounce
ideas off of before actually doing them.
Organizationally speaking, we all have some ideas that are unique to our own
way of thinking. For example: at my house, we have a 'gizmos' drawer for
odd lego pieces - like bricks with side studs, hinges, plates with clips,
etc. I haven't run into anyone else who thinks ldraw/partsref needs a
'gizmos' category.

lot. Maybe 100-200 would be better? That's still about 500K per page.

Hey! Everyone's opinions count. I'm dead serious about that. There're a
lot of subjective decisions in parts organization, where opinion/intuition
is the major decision influencer. Why would anyone else's opinion matter
more than yours?
But don't let me stop you from building....

| (...) NO. Not at all. I think that Partref is organized very intuitively. And with all of the keyword searches available, the only reason for not finding a part on partref is because the part does not yet have a listing there. I have been using (...) (23 years ago, 29-Jun-01, to lugnet.db.inv)
