Hello i use KiCad 4 months now and find it a real modern hi-end CAD system, but i think that the component and footprint databases are not coressponding to the hi-end soul of Kicad. It is obvious that we cant have all the component and footprints present , but i would like to start a discussion about the need of an web service on the Kicad component site for ONLINE search for components , footprints and the upload , download and viewing of them , creating a really big database where everyone could participate and contribute. I know that this is hard to accomplish , but I think that an open discussion about this would be helpful .
Cheers p.s. i am not sure is this the right way about adding a new topic on the forum so apologies if i have something stupid
