Folks,

I've just downloaded my copy of the formative IPC-9151. Just wonder how many
others have done the same.

I cannot comment on the docuement but in one way. This seems an awsome
undertaking to say the least. Not a negative comment, but this seems not
only an endless task but one almost impossible due to almost daily technical
advances.

Having said that, it is easy to see not all of us are doing complex SMT
only. Questions still arise, as they should, concerning conversion factors
from thru hole to SMT with respect to reliability and cost.

Damn interesting stuff and must reflect how all those 279 equations are
being applied.

What a database this and will be,

Earl Moon
