New LDraw.org website - Orion Pobursky - 2012-05-13
I want to go live with the new LDraw.org website soon. I can't get rid of the old site since the PT still relies on it but I want to elicit thoughts on what main features should be in place before the switchover.

Off the top of my head:
[*] Parts updates should be there (and are)
[*] Main tutorials should be there or on the wiki. Although as an interim solution links to the old site would work.
[*] All-in-one-installer and all 'getting started' downloads/information should be there
Basically a new user should be able to visit it and get all the important information to get started.

I like the old site. Why the need to update?

The underlying software is buggy and out of date. It's a management nightmare for the admins

It really is. You spend twice as much time trying to make it work as you do adding the content.

Looks good (albeit still a bit hollow
