During my training, I used FreeCAD for drawing purposes. I used materials
and added few in Standard Material Library as per my requirement in the
Software. Here is the link:
Glass-E-GlassFibre

Glass-S2-GlassFibre

Yes, I can suggest some features like-
1) Add the material db support form web to BRLCAD Software
2) Add the new feature like Graph analysis of material property
There could be many, I'm comparing Old work with the existing materialdb
sites and I'll definitely come with the new exciting ideas. You can suggest
me even better.

Yes, I tried it once and a day before got some problem and my system
crashed. Sorry for delay in my reply. I got your point regarding
rtweight/gqa. I'll study this and will definitely start working on the idea
soon.
P.S.- I'm interested to contribute in MaterialDB website irrespective of
any Contest. I'm looking forward to work on this project under your
guidance.
