Guess I'm more of an early 70's hippie. Don't remember much, but recall
saying, "Why bother?" a lot....
I'm not an html guru and know less about javascript, but if you have code
for one sub-page, I could probably eventually make another.
To paraphrase Garcia, "Somebody has to do something and it's just a shame
that it's me..."

George and Jack,
I'm willing to help. I've used Frontpage for about 4 years -mainly webpages
with links and data and forms... and I'm willing to learn and know people
who could help.
I'm still in the 60's also...

Jack:
What I had envisioned is a main page linking to separate pages for each
type
of part. Each subpage would have the form elements (text boxes, pulldowns,
etc) needed to input and output the required design information, including
the stuff to fine tune for a particular company's process. This could be
done by anyone who knows HTML or one of the HTML editors (like Front Page).
The JavaScript code to stitch them together and perform the calculations
would be added by others.
No storage, approval process, or frills. Just a basic calculator (Sort of
on the order of the trace width calculator on my site.) Since it would be
based on each a page for each device type, it would lend itself to as many
people who wanted to volunteer. I would think a minimum of 6 or 7, anyway.
Perhaps not enough people know JavaScript or HTML to do this, but I don't
have the time for this to be just my project. I guess I'm still in the
60's, when it still was OK to do things just because it was good for
others,
not because you could corner the market.

Hi George,
Well, its no stretch of the imagination to think that if IPC is
collaborating with PCBLibraries on IPC-7351, then they are certainly not
going to initiate or support anything that looks competitive, which is
probably why we haven't heard a peep from anyone official about the online
calculator. Who knows what kind of agreements they made already?
So, we have probably lost that free service forever. We heard it from the
top, "BUSINESS IS WAR", right? sucks eggs...
Anyhoo, I didn't dare volunteer because I have no idea what you are talking
about... just kidding! But I don't have good web-programming experience,
and I don't have a good idea of what it would take to at least get the
simple functionality working again like it was before. All I know how to do
is scan my kid's artwork or a photo and slap it into the family webpage. (
http://frontdoor.biz )
So if you are one of those web-design gurus, what is the perfect number of
people (enough that no one is overwhelmingly burdened, not so many that
"too many cooks spoil the pot") and how would you split up the tasks? What
ARE the tasks, anyway?
Jack (the "afraid of commitment" kinda guy)

Come on, Jack. Don't get me started about this stuff again :)
By the way, y'all, only one person volunteered to help out with the
revision
of the land pattern website to match the new standard, including the DC
executive board. From the underwhelming response, I will probably just do
a
version for in-house use. I guess it's time to join the "what's in it for
me" crowd ;>

I can't help but notice that the "working draft" of IPC-2152 is dated
November 2002, and ThermalMan was created in December 2002.
Has this project gone commercial on us now?
There sure was a lot of hype about this a couple of years ago, and still
nothing practical for the common man.
Is the IPC document release being delayed now that it has been turned into
a money-making machine?
(If anyone is interested, the working draft on IPC can be downloaded by
clicking the "DRAFTS" link here:
http://www.ipc.org/committeedetail.asp?Committee=1-10b )
Maybe the "history" IS becoming "sordid"?
-=-=-=-
Okay, that's two grouchy posts from me in one day... tomorrow I'm turning
over a new leaf!

The history of these charts is pretty funny, maybe sordid is the wrong
word.
<snip>
What Mike is creating is really a much better
tool than the charts could ever address...
Thanks for the comments.
