==Tools database==

2 applications really, Simply a discovery tool to find out who has something you need, more important before space is set up
inventory control - may be useful after space is set up

Our thought is we should focus on the discovery portion and get it up and running ASAP so its useful before the space is ready

Another thought, really it should be tools and SKILLS/Services.  Some people have these to offer rather than actual physical items.

Our thought is that we shouldn't track single tools, like phillips screwdriver, and that we shouldn't bother trying to have unique tools that multiple users would attach to, let it be generic and searchable instead

Tools should be distinct members, not shared
Skills on the other hand should be common to all and attachable to multiple users

Should be a 'will you donate' field

Some db UML diagrams to be posted soon and I'm hoping to get with RickO and see what his progress is
