It was rather obvious from the pending approval backlog that something was going
on. However, I'm fairly confident that it's nothing bad. Just a transition.
A little more communication from the start might have been rather helpful in
this situation. But perhaps such communication was affected by an NDA . . .
I hear they're magical in that way.

How would you do that, since new parts in the set are also not be released, and
neither the minifigures? Maybe I've got the idea wrong, but I fail to see
how it would policy to only approve new sets once released and then allow minifigures
which is not part of any set to be bought and sold. I know the policy prior to
the new ToS was for sets not yet officially released to be dealt with in this
manner, but since the new ToS also prohibts the sale of anything not officially
releaaed by TLG, I still have to wonder about the contents of a set, and what
purpose it would serve to actually add anything prior to the set in which it
appears, being approved.
I will anyway do a few and see how this works. Besides, from what I can gather,
Russell is now the only one actually doing anything on the catalogue, so there
is probably a time issue as well.

Do you not approve these yourself, or are you not expert enough? They've
been on sale at certified LEGO stores since yesterday here as well.

I'm not allow to do it anymore.

P.S.
I would like to submit new inventories for SW sets

| Still cautiously optimistic.
Unfortunately we are likely to see negative changes or changes perceived by some/many
as negative before we see benefits, I worry about them too.
Easier to remove things that exist before adding beneficial changes.
Well that's how I'm choosing to view it, all too easy for me to see it
otherwise but I'm trying to be positive, makes a change.

Meaning that we have to wait until TLG takes action to do what?
This sounds a bit unclear for me. Can you provide a bit more detail on this?

Us admins know about as much as you do. We have been told for about a month now
that paperwork would be forthcoming that we would need to sign. Some kind of
legal agreements, I assume. We have not seen anything yet. Then, all of us were
asked to stop all work as of December 17 with no warning or explanation why we
couldn’t do anything. We don’t know when we will be able to do anything again.
Cheers,

P.S. I am on vacation anyways right now, but I was hoping to do things when I
returned.
