Hello Dave ... Santa just brought Scouts for both of my sons ... and
of course he couldn't resist secretly opening one of the boxes. This
led to his downloading the Scout SDK ... and staying up all night!
Santa wholeheartedly votes for adding full NQC support for the Scout,
and if practical, converting NQC to use the "official" LEGO mnemonics.
Given the success of the RCX, Scout, and MicroScout I'd expect TLG to
further pursue computerized LEGO set development ... so it seems only
sensible to conform to their standards as far as possible.
Thanks again for your contributions to the LEGO community!

PS: I agree with Santa and also vote for adopting the LEGO mnemonics.
