You are right, I once mentioned PCBStandards as compared to the correct
PCBLibraries.  I apologize for that, you were right in correcting me.

In the interest of not getting into a flame war, I will not comment further
on your message.

I still am requesting volunteers to help with the development of a web site
to contain some of the functionality of the new standard so all users can
have the same level of support as they did with the old 782 calculator,
probably without approval and storing of land patterns.  I don't see this
effort taking more than a year as long as the IPC is willing to host it.
Can someone on the executive board help with that?

Subject: RE: [DC] IPC Design Specifications (or new subject maybe)


Please search your post, you will find you did in fact mention
"PCBStandards", and I merely corrected you. PCB Libraries has on several
occasions been confused for PCBStandards. They are NOT the same. Why are you
telling me I'm wrong in correcting you? Also, if you make my company look
bad (ie suspicious), are you telling me I have to right to explain/correct
your statements?

So far I noticed three types of people replying to my messages both online
and offline.

1. PCB Libraries is doing a good job and my company is
   currently or can benefit
2. PCB Libraries should provide its innovation for free
     - Its developers and creditors don't necessarily need
       to recover their costs; hey it's all for the good of
       society, right?
3. Volunteers should spend the next several years reinventing
   the wheel and making the software available for free
     - Spend the next 5-10 years reinventing the wheel with
       volunteers working on this part-time. It's all good if
       you can do the same for free out of the goodness of your
       heart and the whole industry will thank you. I'm inclined
       to believe by the time volunteers are done, there will
       be other tools that do MUCH more than simple calculations
       and a simple calculator like the 782 one-tier online calculator
       is quite obsolete.

How do you plan on competing in the global economy with something that's
simple and obsolete? Those in category 2 and 3 are only going to let more
jobs float away overseas to cheaper labor.

There are those who invest a few weeks worth of savings they would reap from
an innovation, and there are those who won't. Over the next year, more jobs
will probably be lost to cheaper labor because some just refuse to work
smarter. That is (and will be) their problem, but unfortunately, it's our
industry.

Now regarding the IPC standards, I don't want to say anything about people
commenting on price now, but applying this concept to the development of
standards... I must say that from what I recall of my days at IPC, pretty
much nobody who commented on the pricing of standards was involved in
creating them.

Apparently the volunteers know that creating the standards takes much more
time and money than they can put on the table.

Subject: Re: [DC] IPC Design Specifications (or new subject maybe)

Nick:

I don't object to providing an expanded product.

I object to the removal of a free product in favor of a product your company
charges for, and then ONLY if you are running windows.

I don't object to paying for a standard, and I never have.  I think it is
regrettable that a standard is pushed by the person who is going to
monetarily _gain_ from the standard.  And I also wonder if some additional
effort to maintain the on-line calculator might have been undertaken if the
person gaining from the commercial calculator was not pushing his own
agenda.  Yes, it might have taken longer and not been as full of features as
the commercial product, but so what?  THAT would have been a good marketing
point for the commercial product.

I never mentioned PCBStandards on the forum.  Your inclusion of the link
might be construed as promotion of the above company instead of being part
of this discussion.  And your explanation in the second paragraph is pretty
self self-serving.  You only are saving a library developer 30-40 minutes if
they are on windows (and I really question your 30-40 minute average
figure).  If they are on Unix you have just cost them MORE time because your
company was instrumental in removing the only tool they had in favor of your
tool which they can't run.

I think some investigation ought to be made into re-instating and upgrading
the on-line calculator, as _SHOULD_ have, and maybe WOULD have, been done by
the committee if commercial interests didn't get in the way.  Since the IPC
has no connection with said commercial interest, there shouldn't be any
objection on their part.  If there is any interest, and if there are other
volunteers to help, I will also help in the development.  Not to enrich
myself, just to help out other designers.

Subject: RE: [DC] IPC Design Specifications (or new subject maybe)


I didn't want to get into these details on the forum, but you guys seem to
leave me no choice but to explain... if you don't want to read the numbers
again, skip the next paragraph.

George, as I explained to you offline, the new LP software cuts design time
of one part from 30-40 minutes to as little as 2 to 5 minutes. Someone who
creates 5 parts a week, can now save 3 hours per week. If they're worth
$50/hr, they can allocate the $600 they'd get paid per month building parts
to getting the design out the door faster and moving on to the next project.
If the designer is worth $100/hr, the savings are $1,200. Some one who
invests in the tool can make their money back in a few weeks. Then profit
afterwards. Apparently, an increasing number of people don't think this is a
bad idea.

I find it very strange that many who don't invest in this software complain
about "high price". Antithetically, quite a few who actually purchase a
license in the end (once they see the payback), tell us the software is
"under-priced".

There are some who think that anything related with a standard should be
free or of very little cost. Those who don't believe in using new tools and
decide to tough it out with an older or less efficient method, that is their
option. "This is the way we do it because this is the way we've always done
it" simply doesn't work, the industry is very fluid. Technology and costs
constantly change.

Let's take a step back. It takes several years to create a single standard
with volunteers. To expect something like our software to be created by
volunteers in such short a time is very unrealistic. Because the software is
selling, we can compensate the developers so that we can improve the
software at a MUCH faster pace than any volunteer you'll find to do this in
his/her part time while doing design work on the side.

Nobody is obligated to buy the software if they purchase the standard. But
everyone does have the option to invest for competitive advantage and market
share.

Though many US companies are investing in this tool, it's unfortunate that
not all are, and its very sad if they aren't doing so if the reason is that
someone convinced them with a blanket statement that they shouldn't have to
pay for anything that's got to do with a standard.

The most critical time to *invest* in development is when the business is
hurting. IF one's company policy links the "amount of investment" with the
copmany "revenue", the death spiral is virtually always inevitable:

   1. Less revenue ->
   2. Less investment ->
   3. Less competetive advantage -> (return to step 1)

This cycle can be triggered at any stage and repeats forever until
intentionally broken. At some point of decreased revenue, there likely are
more cutbacks and downsizing (what does that do to revenue?). The most
common way by far to break this spiral is to wisely invest the decreasing
resources (this does NOT mean refraining from investing, as many seem to
believe - see #2 above).

Oh, one quick correction - in an earlier post, you mentioned PCBStandards.
I'm sure you meant www.PCBLibraries.com. Now I've got plenty of work I set
aside and must get back to it.

Nick Ban

Donald:

Sorry to correct you, but you DO have to purchase something to have the same
functionality as you did with the previous standard.  As you said yourself,
"...the web version did let you create land patterns but it was very
limited."  The old on-line calculator allowed you enter dimensions and get
suggested land pattern dimensions back that were based on the SM-782
standard and the numbers you entered.  You have to send money to a private
company now in order to attain that same functionality now.

Unless you are running on Unix, in which case you can't even BUY the same
functionality.  Just a paper (or CD) standard and a calculator :/

Never mind, let us agree to disagree and let it go with that :)

George, correct me if I am wrong but the last time I was on the IPC web
site the viewer was there and it was FREE.

You don't have to buy anything to have what you had with SM-782.

However the web version did let you create land patterns but it was very
limited.

http://landpatterns.ipc.org/default.asp

If you wanted to have the electronic version of SM-782 (Excel format), you
had to pay $50.00 US.
I did buy that version and used it quite a bit.

Today IPC charges $50 for the hard copy of IPC-7351 and gives you a CD with
the viewer.  No calculator with this package.

If you go to PCB Libraries you can buy the new calculator for $177.00 US I
think.  That is more than what I paid for the old one but it works a lot
better.

Anyway, just because Nick changed jobs doesn't mean that he or anyone else
is trying to "hoodwink" anyone.

IMHO. :)
