  Re: LEGOFan.net - central community run hub for all areas of the LEGO community.
 
(...) [snip] (...) Yeah, but if we have _defined_ environment (I mean there is _finite_ number of all LEGO sets out there), the final result _must_ be same. So I don't see the need for competition. Of course, there may be differences in 'value (...) (22 years ago, 12-Feb-04, to lugnet.general)

  Re: LEGOFan.net - central community run hub for all areas of the LEGO community.
 
(...) To spell out the concern directly: it seems like this new site will either add yet one more new place to look, or else kill off one or more existing ones. Or -- and this seems unfortunately possible -- *both*. But as I said elsewhere, that's (...)

  Re: LEGOFan.net - central community run hub for all areas of the LEGO community.
 
(...) So, to, I guess, play the *other* devil's advocate: I'm concerned about how this new thing will be *both* genuinely community-run _and_ Official Lego Company Sponsored. I don't know the details -- and may even be completely wrong, but it's my (...)

  Re: LEGOFan.net - central community run hub for all areas of the LEGO community.
 
(...) Thanks! (...) The idea is that LEGOFan will be very closely integrated with the other sites. We would love to both incorporate external data, and share any data we have locally. Our goal is not to replace anyone, or push any other site out of (...)

[ XFUT lugnet.org ] (...) In the long run we hope to share data - or at least have a stronger integration than just links - with other LEGO fan sites. But the initial release will probably just link to most of these sites. (...) We expect that (...)

  Re: LEGOFan.net - central community run hub for all areas of the LEGO community.
 
(...) The main reason is that LUGNET is not owned and run by the community. I love LUGNET, and I think Todd (and Suz, before she retired) did a great job in setting it up and running it. However, development on LUGNET can only be done by invitation. (...)
