mrspaceman · 09-06-2010, 08:37 AM

I have started a project which will allow us to use calibre on a PC to manage tags for books and synchronise them (the tags) to the eDGe library.

see:
http://code.google.com/p/edgelibrarylib/
and
http://andy.aspellclark.org.uk/calibreedge.html

is anyone else interested in this or is it just me?

I know there is a lot of work to do on the UI (speed, making it look good etc...), but let me know if this would still be usefull to anyone.

13 Sept 2010 19:11 (UK) : this is probably useable now. it has a list and a grid view. the drop down lists are now sorted. please download and let me know what you think.
