I believe one of you Mac guys may have actually inquired about the
clone part files at one point.  So clone part makers, what's the
current status?  I have a copy of clone001.zip.  Should I make that

telling where to get the current clone part library (when/if it
reappears)?

Glad you asked, because it gives me another good excuse to get off
my duff and finish what I started.  My collaborator in setting up a
clone.dat website has been very patient with my procrastination, and
he's put together an attractive site that would be great, if only
I'd give him the clone001.zip list.

Here's the skinny: The current clone parts library is about 720
elements, plus a handful of sub-parts and a few primitives.  The
curent library is generally backwards-compatible with the original
release, but there have been a few corrections and several
reorientations of parts.  Nothing too drastic, though.

I would prefer that clone001.zip not be posted anywhere just yet,
because I don't want overlap or inconsistencies when the official
library is released.

My apologies for the delay, but I hadn't realized that there was so
much interest in the clone.dats.  I'll try to get it together within
the week.

Since it's been about a month now, I figure it's time to check up on
this again.  Anything happening here, or is it now a hopelessly lost
cause.  Given the recent happy announcement, I'm assuming it's been
indefinitely put off.

By the way, where is that mysterious clone site you mentioned?  I
couldn't find it last time I looked.
