well, we use the peeron list, but that's kinda obvious :)

yup, ldraw names are kinda funkey that way, but they're the most common
standard we could find... I should think of a way to implement they
keywords search...

if there's an ldraw part for that printing, we use whatever ldraw number
there is (973pNN). when ldraw doesn't have the pattern, we try to take
a picutre, and give it one of our numbers - 973pxNN...

what lego number? we always try to go by what's on the brick... only
the parts number, not the other number there, like the 7-06 or 11 04...
Can you give an example where the lego number isn't the same as the
ldraw one?

nodnod, doing it good the first time means you don't have to do it again
:) if you do choose to index it by the ldraw part numbers, I'd like to
include your inventory in peeron, with your permission of course...

| I decided to do a inventory of 1815 Paradisa Lifeguard and have a question or three :^) What is the best naming convention? Auczilla? partsref? Peeron? just use whatever I come up with?
