Perhaps this is a lousy idea, but what about a monthly or bi-monthly update
which would be posted in lugnet.lego.direct by LD? It wouldn't have to be
prosey. It could be strictly utilitarian. It could address chosen concerns
with short responses. In short, a problem tracker that we all can see.
With Todd's suggestion of LD subscribing to this group, each problem or
suggestion would be easily received, and could be datestamped and tracked.
The status of each problem could be posted as 'rejected', 'in committee',
'drawing board', 'will consider' or whatever else. And if it seemed like
something was a potential good idea, but LD would not rather address the
problem soon, the status could read, 'wait X months'. (It almost sounds like
a Magic 8-Ball :-) But at least stuff could be briefly addressed.
Yet with this system, people would have to understand that a detailed 'why'
of a rejection wouldn't be expressed, unless someone at LD wanted to say
why. But at least we know that somebody read the problem or suggestion. And
we should all understand that LD/TLC cannot be legally held to any answer(s)
they give, should they change their minds.
