|
| | | Since getting interested in legOS a couple months ago, I have been checking out the various parts of this software project. I see the central sites as being Markus Noga, creater of legOS, web site (URL) www.lugnet.com and the newsgroup (...) (23 years ago, 21-Mar-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

| | | | | I think the main problem with legOS right now is lack of consistent maintenance. As Luis Villa noted back in February, he can no longer devote enough time to legOS to support the upkeep. He also made a call for new volunteers, and listed what's (...) (23 years ago, 21-Mar-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
