Switch/Keyboard Cross-reference Resources?

[Tarzan]

I've seen a couple of posts with breakdowns of a Cherry model number, detailing out what each section of the ID means.  Recently seen these for both keyboards and key switches.  Is there a sticky somewhere I haven't seen for this kind of reference material?

And do other manufacturers also have this same kind of product ID nomenclature, somewhere that's available to the public?

For keyboards, it's either really obvious or just something to memorize.

As for switches...

Very bottom of the page has the guide. Simply choose one from each.

Alternatively, you can use 7bit's GB:
