Merredith and all,

Since June, Andreas' editor has been originally hosted on my page
(http://mynxt.matthiaspaulscholz.eu/tools/index.html) by his request then.
Hence I have been pretty surprised to find it hosted on
legoengineering.com also some weeks ago, without any hint to my page
and, even worse, without a hint to the author's name.
Yet when I asked him, Andreas told me that he already knew about
legoengineering hosting it now also.

Well, two different locations on the web for the same tool makes no
sense and is apt to run in synchronization issues, so I will remove the
tool itself from my webspace (freeing some space) and replace it with a
link.
On the dark side, there are other sites in the web that link to the tool
on my page already - their links will be broken then. :-(

After all, I presume that the whole process may be considered somewhat
.. hm ...unfortunate.
And unneccessarily so.

Regards,
   Matthias Paul Scholz

Just to give credit where credit is due....

The LCD editor was contributed to the site by one of the MDPs. It was passed
on to us by LEGO Ed so we are missing the original author.  But we will
definitely find the original author to give proper acknowledgement.


Also....

LEGOengineering.com is always looking for contributors (activities, code,
models, knowledgebase items).  Reviewers  and testers are also needed.  The
site aims to develop supporting resources for educators (in schools and
after school programs) who use the RCX and NXT.  At the moment on the
software side of life, the site is focused on ROBOLAB and NXT-G.
We're eager to get the NXT community more involved in the site.
