I have seen several references to the MER CAD drawings (one message related "the recently released CAD files". Where do I get the CAD files?

I can understand how the engineering behind a launch vehicle could be ITAR'd, or things such as the specifics of the RAD rockets and airbag inflation ( both military derived ) - but a CAD drawing from which one can gauge essentially only the look of the thing - I still cant figure out why that would come under the remit of ITAR...and infact it probably doesnt - it's more likely to be a copyright issue...

....but the whole issue blows straight out the window when my mind casts back to the CAD file as the freely available Patent application contains much of the same material at a similar resolution.

For those struggling with the Tif's - I have Quicktime pro, and yup - the images never show up, but if I right click where they SHOULD show up - I can 'save as quicktime source' and just save a tif to my desktop which loads fine smile.gif
