Hmm, I wonder why they seem different to me than images... (hmm)
I guess because they're not binaries.
The rule was "no binaries," not "no images."
And the whole LCAD thing needs as much support as it can get, IMHO... It's
the greatest collaborative project ever, and will always be better than
something coming from TLG. :)

Right-o! This ng is definitely *not* appropriate for .DAT files... It's
not a data group...it's a discussion group.
I would *love* to create a lugnet.cad.ldraw-dat or lugnet.cad.dat group, but
I'm hypersensitive about having "too many groups" in the non-loc section...
need more feedback first...and we all need to agree that -if- there were a
special group for posting LDraw .dat files to, that people would -not-
crosspost to it to lugnet.cad.
