			==History with LDraw==
			Kevin started using [[LDraw]] in 1998 when the first Mindstorms sets were introduced. He was contacted by a publisher that wanted to publish LEGO books.
			It was decided that LDraw, [[L3P]] and [[POV-Ray]] would be used to create the instructions. Kevin wrote a perl script to automate much of the image generation process. Later he converted this to a rudimentary C++ GUI program - today known as [[LPub]]. He is currently working on version 4, a complete tool for laying out building instructions.

	'''~~Name:~~'~~'' Kevin Clague (Username: kclague)~~		Kevin was a charter member of both the [[LDraw.org Standards Committee]], and the [[LDraw.org Steering Committee]]. Kevin has co-authored four books on the topic of LEGO, three are building instructions books, and the fourth is the first book dedicated to the LDraw family of tools, ''[[LEGO Software Power Tools]]''.

	'~~''Age:''' 54 (as~~ of ~~2012)~~		==Related interests==
			Kevin's LEGO Dark age ended in 1998 when the LEGO Mindstorms set was first introduced. Kevin is a computer engineer and does both software and hardware at work. The programming for LPub is very different than the kind he does at work, so it is a nice change of pace.

	~~'''Location:''' Owatonna, MN USA~~		Kevin is an avid fan of technic and robotics LEGO products. He specializes in making walking and crawling creatures, especially ones made out of pneumatics.
