Re: Team 254 Open-Source Release: Cheesy Parts

Yeah, PDM integration is something I'd like to add if possible. One issue we have is Cheesy Parts getting out of sync with the CAD because some people are too lazy to create entries in it before saving their parts to PDM (cough EJ cough), so being able to query PDM and automagically create Cheesy Parts entries in that case would be nice. It's not going to be a walk in the cake, though, since the only way I've heard of to integrate with PDM is through some .NET DLL.

We're using a t1.micro EC2 instance running Ubuntu 12.04. It would probably be fairly trivial to deploy Cheesy Parts instead as a Heroku or AppFog app, though -- I just like the extra control that a virtual private server provides.
