Hi all
A standard naming convention is defenetively a must, weither Ldraw or Aucxilla
or what ever it is,
my self, I build a db for part inventory giving my own Part Number, Description
and it is confusing with all the part auction around.
In a few weeks(months ?) when I will upgrade my home cumputer I might be able
to host a web site for the database( would need some work to make it compatible
with LDraw) or if someone else do it by that time, it would be great to have a
place to find in wich kit that part can be found and also to have a link with
the part image database.
and finally yes, IMO, it would be great to have a group to discuss new part
name and number somewhere in Lugnet.
