Sometime ago I was thinking that gEDA-users as a comunity could
request
a part search API-like system to the distributors. For example,Digikey
already has a fast-search bar for firefox, so they are not far from
what
I mean. But the useful way would be something like the GeoCode APIs
available on the web. So the app can build a part search request
from a
set of string, and generate the url to get the answers. A solution
like
that would allow every EDA tool to implement multiple itneresting
functions like purchase information from multiple distributors
based on
BOM info, and so on.
I have the feeling that this could have good reception from companies
like digikey, mouser, arrow...
This would be wonderful, wonderful, WONDERFUL.
It would ROCK.
In case I'm being unclear, I think this is a great idea.
And I like it.
