Show HN: DigicamFinder – open-sourced DPReview camera data

Ever since the DPReview closure announcement https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35248296 we were thinking how to preserve the 25 years of valuable DPReview camera data. Archive.org has been great, but it's not usable by the general public.

The best way to keep it safe going forward, is to have the community own it, so we open sourced it: https://github.com/open-product-data/digital-cameras

I'm aware of a number of attempts to make product data open-sourced, but none have the power of the photo geeks behind it :)

Thoughts or ideas? + really looking for some contribution love.
