We welcome and ask your thoughts and feedback. As you can certainly
understand, however, we need to stay focused for our initial launch to
actually get launched. We are listening and will continue to listen, even • if
your suggestions and requests don't make it into the first release. One of
our main focuses in creating an initial structure that allows for and
encourages community participation well into the future.

Play Well,

The LEGOFan Team




Having been down a similar path with ILTCO I can certainly appreciate the
"getting launched" aspect of an effort such as this.  This effort is
probably a magnitude larger than the ILTCO effort so good luck as you get
v1.0 released!

I have a couple of questions, one from an ILTCO perspective, one from a
personal perspective.

1)  ILTCO Q:  Can you articulate how you envision interacting with the
various other sites (1000steine, BrickLink, ILTCO, Classic-Castle, etc.)?
Do you envision links to the various sites or actually incorporating and
sharing data?

2)  Personal Q:  This is probably more of a plea than a Q.  :-)  Will
LEGOfan.net incorporate dicussion forums?  If so, please make them
accessible via NNTP.  IMHO NNTP is the single best feature of LUGNET and one
I would like to see continue if the LEGO community migrates from LUGNET to
LEGOfan.net.


Mike

(...) I'd rather see this new site point to Lugnet for the discussion forums. It's quite well done here, and there's little point in spreading everyone out.

[ XFUT lugnet.org ] (...) In the long run we hope to share data - or at least have a stronger integration than just links - with other LEGO fan sites. But the initial release will probably just link to most of these sites. (...) We expect that (...)

(...) Thanks! (...) The idea is that LEGOFan will be very closely integrated with the other sites. We would love to both incorporate external data, and share any data we have locally. Our goal is not to replace anyone, or push any other site out of (...)

  LEGOFan.net - central community run hub for all areas of the LEGO community.
 
Hi everyone, For some time now, a group of us have been discussing the concept of a LEGO site that the community could truly call its own-- community owned, designed, and operated. To this end, we have been endeavoring for more than half a year to (...)
