We should have probably addressed this a while ago. Think we should go ahead
and open up modules to being rectangular or bigger than 96x96?

New sizes could be:

48x96
144x144

Like that.  I think as long as they stayed square or rectangular and sides
were always a multiple of 48 this would be fine.

What do you think?

(...) Err, I'm a little confused here. Isn't that what supermodules are already? I've seen more than a few (heck, they were at brickfest) that are already rectangular. How is this new? Adrian (21 years ago, 6-Sep-03, to lugnet.space)
